Purchase of plot given to state government employees is it legal


04-Sep-2023 (In Civil Law)
I got a deal to purchase a plot given by the state government to their employees via society and from the deed there is a clause that owner cannot sell the land for around 10 yrs from date of registration(Registration done 5years back). Can you suggest whether I can proceed to buy that plot and any other way to legally I can own the property?

Hi Generally land sold by state government to their employees are at subsidised prices and these are welfare/beneficial measures intended to benefit the employee. So an employee cannot violate any of the clauses of such transactions. In your case, though as per law, there is no illegality in the event of the employee selling the property to you within 10 years from the date of registration, the government has the right to reclaim the land from you and employee for violating the clause at any time if they come to know. Sometimes government ignores such transactions also. So you can deal in this transaction with a certain risk.
