Land Reform

भूमि सुधार
Original Text

The State shall pursue land reform policies to end feudal land ownership, ensure productive use of agricultural land, and provide land to landless families.

💡 Plain Language Explanation

Nepal\'s land ownership is deeply unequal — a legacy of the feudal Rana era. This article mandates land reform: ending absentee landlordism, setting land ownership ceilings, distributing excess land to landless families (especially Dalits and marginalized groups), and ensuring agricultural land is used productively. Progress has been slow but the constitutional mandate is clear.

🇳🇵 नेपाली व्याख्या

सामन्ती भूस्वामित्व अन्त्य, भूमिहीनलाई जमिन वितरण, कृषि भूमिको उत्पादनशील प्रयोग।

✅ Strengths

Constitutional commitment to land reform addresses Nepal\'s deepest structural inequality.

⚠️ Concerns

Land reform has been promised for decades; powerful landowners have blocked meaningful implementation.
