What Is A Prohibited Property?
In India, the land is treated as a state subject. This means that the state government has the authority to make rules and regulations pertaining to land ownership and even the process of transferring titles as well.
This is why they also list the property as prohibited properties. Prohibited properties refer to the land parcels that will remain the property of the State even though they can be given to the public on a leasehold basis.
The properties that fall under the prohibited list will be governed by Section 22 A of the Indian Registration Act, of 1908. The Telangana government received a lot of criticism of late because they ended up putting a lot of properties under the prohibited property category.
As per reports, as much as 20 lakh acres of patta land has been placed under the prohibited property. This has led to a lot of discontent among the landowners.
