Question

Main cause of slow progress of land reform is:

• A. Lack of political will
• B. Problem of voluntary surrender
• C. Inadequate ceiling laws
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A Lack of political will

Lack of Political Will:

The Task Force was of the view that there was lack of political will in the enactment of progressive measures of land reforms and their efficient implementation. Efficient implementation requires far hard political decisions and effective political support, direction and control. The Task Force has correctly pointed out “the task of political will is amply demonstrated by the large gaps between policy and legislation and between law and implementation.” Thus, it is admitted fact that political will is not forthcoming due to the existence of democratic political power structure of the country.
