In 2013, a new law sought to end land grab in India. Telangana showed how easy it was to undermine it, as it took over farmland for a 20,000-acre pharma city.

One day in early August 2021, Papi Reddy took a trip to the revenue office of Yacharam mandal, in Telangana’s Ranga Reddy District, He wanted to claim some money that was due to him under Rythu Bandhu, a state-sponsored agricultural welfare scheme, which assures Rs 5,000 every season to small farmers like him for each acre of land they own.

At the office, however, Reddy faced a rude, uncooperative officer who insisted that Reddy’s name was not on the government’s list of landowners. “Your name is not on the online record, you’re not due anything,” he recounted being told over and over.

Reddy was shocked. He had just spent the morning in his fields. The land he had bought some 50 years ago was bristling with new growth even as the officer was rejecting his pleas.

Back home, he logged on to the website of Dharani, the Telangana government’s “Integrated Land Records Management System”. The website, which went live in 2020, hosts online records of land ownership. Although farmers have other forms of documentation, like state-issued passbooks, the Dharani records act as a primary base for farmer identification numbers, which farmers need to access Rythu Bandu and other essential services, like crop insurance, Central welfare and crop loans.
