In Land Ceiling Acts, the upper limit does not depend on : |
Productivity of land Surplus land Kind of land Location of land |
Location of land |
The correct answer is Option (4) → Location of land These laws imposed an upper limit on the amount of land that can be owned by a particular family. The ceiling varies from region to region, depending on the kind of land, its productivity, and other such factors. Very productive land has a low ceiling while unproductive dry land has a higher ceiling limit. According to these acts, the state is supposed to identify and take possession of surplus land (above the ceiling limit) held by each household, and redistribute it to landless families and households in other specified categories, such as SCs and STs. |
