The Lumbini provincial government is preparing to draft a separate provincial land act. Although it does not have the authority to distribute land, the provincial government has brought an act and is preparing to distribute land for social welfare.
Lumbini Province Chief Minister Chet Narayan Acharya said that preparations are underway to finalize the land act in the upcoming winter session.
In a discussion held with a joint delegation of Mukt Kamaiya Samaj, Kamaiya Mahila Jagran Samaj and Mukt Kamlahari Bikas Manch at the Office of the Chief Minister and Council of Ministers, Deukhuri on Sunday, he said that the process of drafting the act has moved forward. 'The draft of the land act has been prepared and we will finalize it based on the suggestions after discussing with all the stakeholders,' he said, 'The ministry has already discussed with the local level. Now we are discussing with representatives of freed Kamaiya, freed Kamlahari and landless squatters and finalizing it.' He said that the provincial government is moving forward with the goal of finalizing the act in the winter session, taking into account the feelings of all stakeholders.
The government is preparing to address all land-related issues through the act and then formulate regulations and procedures and implement them. 'The state does not have the right to give land,' he said, 'but we will bring an act to solve social problems.'
The members of the delegation expressed their happiness over the government's initiative to bring the Land Act and suggested that arrangements be made to include the feelings of all communities. Pashupati Chaudhary, President of Mukt Kamaiya Samaj, Krishna Tharu Kumal, President of Kamaiya Mahila Jagran Samaj, and Hira Chaudhary, President of Mukt Kamlahari Bikash Manch, said that along with land rights, it is necessary to ensure basic issues such as education, health, employment, and entrepreneurship through law.
'I am happy to hear that the government has started bringing the Land Act. Now, the role of the state should be seen in solving the problem by bringing it soon,' said Kumal, President of Kamaiya Mahila Jagran Samaj. 'I feel that the government has taken the initiative to solve the problem.' Chaudhary, President of Mukt Kamaiya Samaj, said that a clear policy is needed in favor of the freed Kamaiyas who are awaiting rehabilitation.
