“Revitalising the land distribution programme”

The article raises questions about the transparency of the Sindh government’s land redistribution programme and refers to a research study conducted by a non-government organisation, Participatory Development Initiatives (PDI) which point to a number of flaws. According to it, lack of participation of the civil society in the process of land identification, slow process of land distribution among the landless haris, land guarantees without allotment orders, delayed process of the issuance of ownership documents etc, are some major causes that need to be tacked in order to make the land distribution programme more successful.
