STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS
The Karnataka Land Grabbing Prohibition Act (Karnataka Act 38 of 2014)

alleged as 'land grabbing' and to prosecute the offences related to land grabbing,
ownership of the grabbing land, cases related possession of land legally and such
offenses specified in Chapter XIV(A) of the Karnataka Land Revenue Act, 1964
(Karnataka Act 12 of 1964).
Whereas the Karnataka Land Revenue Act, 1964 (Karnataka Act 12 of 1964)
has been amended to streamline the provisions for the protection of Government
Land and land meant for public purposes. The Hon’ble Supreme Court in Hinch
9
Lal Tiwari vs Kamala Devi, Jagpal Singh vs State of Punjab and others and Joginder
vs State of Haryana and others in reportable judgements has repeatedly
emphasized the responsibility of the State Government in protecting the
Government and public lands. This amendment will enable to protect the
Government land and ensure the revenue officials do not strike from their primary
responsibility. To introduce the accurate way of measuring distance while filing
case against encroachment of the Government lands.
And whereas appointment of staff and employees is a prerogative of the
Government and governed by the rules, norms and economy orders. Hence,
surervision of the Government is required for any recruitment. Enhancement of
penalty in other cases of Land grabbing.
Hence, the Bill.
FINANCIAL MEMORANDUM
There is no extra expenditure involved in the proposed Legislative measure.
MEMORANDUM REGARDING DELEGATED LEGISLATION

sub-section (2), of section 12 proposed to be substituted
empowers the State Government to prescribe rules the salaries,
allowances, method of recruitment and other condition of service
of officers and other employees of the special court.
