In 41% of the cases, communities allege that authorities or project proponents did not follow proper procedures for the takeover of land

Disputes concerning commons land accounted for 75.94 per cent of all the existing and resolved land-related conflicts, according to a new report.

The report titled Land Locked: Investments and Lives in Land Conflicts, released by Land Conflict Watch (LCW), a Delhi-based research agency, arrived at this conclusion after analysing around 607 land conflicts in the country. These conflicts span over 1,515,295.30 hectares (ha) of land and affect roughly 6,377,080 people.

Around a fourth of the total land-related conflicts occurred in Fifth Schedule districts, said the report released December 12, 2022. The Fifth Schedule designates Scheduled Areas in which the interests of the scheduled Tribes are to be protected.

Non-implementation of Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 (FRA) and lack of tenure in such places led to conflicts.
