SYLLABUS- >Abolition of Intermediaries:
Zamindari,
Jagirdari
Inamdari;
>Tenancy Reforms

>Land alienation in Scheduled Areas
INTRODUCTION:
DEFINITION OF LAND REFORMS-
Land reform (also agrarian reform) involves the changing of laws, regulations or customs regarding land ownership
Land reform can, therefore, refer to transfer of ownership from the more powerful to the less powerful, such as from a relatively small number of wealthy (or noble) owners with extensive land holdings (e.g., plantations, large ranches) to individual ownership by those who work the land
Land reforms mean, such measures as, abolition of intermediaries, tenancy reforms, ceiling on land holdings, consolidation and cooperative farming etc.
a)Zamindari =who held enormous tracts of land and held control over the peasants, from whom the zamindars reserved the right to collect tax (often for military purposes)
b)Jagirdari =the collection of the revenues of an estate/land and the power of governing
c)Inamdari =land given for discharging some duties.(or) Where a person did a service to government, ‘inams’ were given as a whole village or villages
all the above intermediaries were abolished in order to have social justice,and land to landless,etc
In the Telangana region, the peasants and rural masses were subjected to feudal oppression by illegal exactions and forced labour. An armed struggle was started by the rural peasants under the leadership of the then undivided Communist Party of India (CPI) against the Nizam's tyrannical rule. The struggle was gradually brought to an end after the merger of Hyderabad state into the Indian Union in September 1948. In the Andhra region also there were struggles against the zamindari system, but not on such a serious scale. Thus, in both the regions the abolition of intermediaries like zamindars, jagirdars and inamdars (institutions and persons) became imminent, just as in other parts of India after Independence.
Tenancy reforms= reduces rents. Landowner cannot evict a tenant farmer as per his whims and fancies.
Land ceiling = reduces the inequality of income and land ownership among villagers. Provides land to landless labourers
