Land acquisition in India is governed by the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 Till 2013, land acquisition in India was governed by Land Acquisition Act of 1894
The Land Acquisition Act of 1894 allowed the government to acquire private lands. Under the 1894 Act, displaced people were only liable for monetary compensation linked with market value of the land in question.
The 2013 Act focuses on providing not only compensation to the land owners, but also extend rehabilitation and resettlement benefits to livelihood looser from the land, which shall be in addition to the minimum compensation.
