ABSTRACT:
This paper examines the legal and socio-economic impact of land acquisition on rural and tribal populations in Chhattisgarh, with special reference to Rampur village in Dhamtari district. Using empirical data from 25 affected families, the research analyses gaps between the legislative framework and ground-level realities. The study explores implementation flaws in the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013, and highlights key issues such as lack of consent, inadequate compensation, and insufficient rehabilitation. Recommendations are made for policy reform and grassroots legal empowerment to ensure just and inclusive development.
