&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Over the last several days, various organisations in Punjab have been protesting against a revised land policy relating to village common land, which is known as &amp;lsquo;shamlat&amp;rsquo; land.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Over the last several days, various organisations in Punjab have been protesting against a revised land policy relating to village common land, which is known as &amp;lsquo;shamlat&amp;rsquo; land. The state Cabinet recently approved an amendment to the Village Common Land (Regulation) Rules, 1964, allowing panchayats to sell shamlat land to industrial houses, entrepreneurs, businessmen, and companies for setting up micro, small and medium industrial units.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;* What is shamlat land&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Shamlat is one of three categories of common land in Punjab villages. &amp;lsquo;Shamlat&amp;rsquo; land is owned by the village panchayat. Of the other two categories, &amp;lsquo;Jumla mushtraka malkan&amp;rsquo; is land in a common pool made with villagers&amp;rsquo; personal contributions, and is managed by the panchayat. The third category, &amp;lsquo;Gau charan&amp;rsquo;, too belongs to the panchayat, and is for cattle grazing. Over time, however, all such lands have come to be known as shamlat land. Shamlat land is mainly used for cultivation, and is allotted for this through an open auction that is conducted by the Rural Development and Panchayat Department every year.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;* Why it matters&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;One-third of Punjab&amp;rsquo;s shamlat lands are reserved for Dalits. Around 25,000 to 26,000 families in the state, mostly Dalits, depend on this land for their livelihood, according to a survey by Zameen Prapti Sangharsh Committee (ZPSC), an umbrella of eight organisations, mostly representing Dalits.&lt;/p&gt;

Why Punjab land decision has upset Dalits -Anju Agnihotri Chaba

-The Indian Express Over the last several days, various organisations in Punjab have been protesting against a revised land policy relating to village common land, which is known as ‘shamlat’ land. Over the last several days, various organisations in Punjab have been protesting against a revised land policy relating to village common land, which is known as ‘shamlat’ land. The state Cabinet recently approved an amendment to the Village Common Land (Regulation) Rules, 1964, allowing panchayats to sell shamlat land to industrial houses, entrepreneurs, businessmen, and companies for setting up micro, small and medium industrial units. * What is shamlat land Shamlat is one of three categories of common land in Punjab villages. ‘Shamlat’ land is owned by the village panchayat. Of the other two categories, ‘Jumla mushtraka malkan’ is land in a common pool made with villagers’ personal contributions, and is managed by the panchayat. The third category, ‘Gau charan’, too belongs to the panchayat, and is for cattle grazing. Over time, however, all such lands have come to be known as shamlat land. Shamlat land is mainly used for cultivation, and is allotted for this through an open auction that is conducted by the Rural Development and Panchayat Department every year. * Why it matters One-third of Punjab’s shamlat lands are reserved for Dalits. Around 25,000 to 26,000 families in the state, mostly Dalits, depend on this land for their livelihood, according to a survey by Zameen Prapti Sangharsh Committee (ZPSC), an umbrella of eight organisations, mostly representing Dalits.
