What was the impact of the Haryana Land Reforms Act, 1972, on land distribution and agrarian structure?
The Haryana Land Reforms Act, 1972, aimed to ensure equitable land distribution and improve the agrarian structure. The act imposed ceilings on landholdings, redistributed surplus land to landless farmers, and provided legal protection to tenant farmers. It promoted social justice, reduced land concentration, and enhanced agricultural productivity by providing land access to marginalized sections of society.
