Strictly avoid abuse of allocated land plots, farmlands

December 22

 

THE governments in successive eras allocate farmlands, croplands, forest areas and public areas to the people for their livelihoods and residences.

 

Some businesspersons and local people apply for allotments of farmlands to cultivate various sorts of crops and to breed farming cattle in order to earn income and to contribute towards the food sufficiency for the people.

 

Verily, the farmlands should be used for agriculture and livestock tasks only under the relevant laws. But, some persons abuse the allotted farmlands by allowing the resettlement of residents as illegal movements without abiding by the existing laws, rules, regulations and directives.

 

Moreover, some businesspersons and people apply for land plots with the purpose of implementing housing projects in some regions and states. Relevant ministries allotted large land plots where housing apartment buildings will be constructed. But, some of them fail to implement the projects.

 

Truly, the farmlands taken by the persons with a guarantee to grow various species of crops should not be abused. If so, those wishing to genuinely perform farming works will miss the chance for operating the farmlands. Likewise, if the businesspersons who have got the project land plots allotted by the government for construction projects fail to do so, other businesspersons who missed the chance in competition to get the land plots will face great loss.

 

Indeed, they offend the existing laws with the acts of failure to implement the construction projects of housing apartments for the people and with the malpractice of illegal resettlement on the farmlands in various ways beyond the laws. It is because some businesspersons sell the small land plots from their project areas to the local people.

 

As such, local authorities at different levels need to adopt the restrictions for those who committed the illegal acts of abusing the allotted farmlands and project areas. If necessary, action should be taken against those who offended the disciplines related to the land plots subsidized by the government.

 

The correct restrictions of local authorities are sure to eliminate the illegal use of land plots and farmlands as well as the illegal resettlement of some residents. Consequently, such proper efforts of local authorities will benefit the land management procedures of the government. Hence, those taking the land plots and farmlands need to be loyal to the State by showing real implementation of the projects without malpractices. GNLM
