The Land Acquisition ordinance of the NDA government was allowed to
lapse on Friday August 28,2015 with the government issuing executive orders to extend
the provisions of compensation, rehabilitation and resettlement as
mentioned in the 2013 version of the Act to 13 Central Acts like the
National Highways Act and the Railways Act.
The order was issued by the government under the “removal of
difficulties” clause (section 113) of the The Right to Fair Compensation
and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement
Act, 2013(LARR)
This will allow the government the alternative of not promulgating the
land ordinance for the fourth time, allowing land acquisition under 13
Acts not mentioned in the UPA version of the Land Act and also give a
free hand to State governments to acquire land under their own laws.
