 Thank you everyone. I'm Namita Wahee. I'm the founding director of the Land Rights Initiative at the Centre for Policy Research. I started the initiative in 2014. We recently celebrated five years and really the goal behind setting up the initiative was to attempt to build a systematic and comprehensive repository of knowledge regarding land in India because it is true of India, perhaps true of other countries as well, that land is the biggest source of conflict. The maximum number of disputes are with respect to land. The pendency of cases in courts is highest with respect to land and also on-ground conflict over land has been cited by our prime minister in the past as the biggest threat to the economic future and political stability of the country. So the goal behind setting up this initiative was essentially to try and figure out why there are so many conflicts, why there are so many disputes and what can we as researchers do to inform the discourse in a way that we can actually find resolution of some of these disputes and when we started out we realised that the state of knowledge on land laws and land disputes itself was very limited and therefore we started out by trying to build knowledge in different areas which was causing a lot of conflicts. So for instance our first research report which came out in 2017 was a systematic study of all land acquisition disputes decided by the Supreme Court which hears cases from all over the country over a period of 66 years from 1950 to 2016. Our second report was looking at land rights of the schedule tribes who are the tribal communities or the indigenous communities in India and who live in geographically demarcated areas that are tribal autonomous areas and looking at what are the reasons for the fact that even though there are all these protective constitutional legal provisions for them and their land rights yet they are the most displaced and most vulnerable groups in the country. So that was the second report that we brought out and now at this India Land and Development Conference we are for the first time showcasing research, providing a peek into research that we have been doing for the last two years where we are trying to build a compilation of all land laws in India and we have collected over a thousand laws already and we have been trying to analyse these laws so that we can perhaps streamline land legislation in India. Less conflicts between laws, less conflicts on the ground, less conflicts in courts and hopefully more systematic, more just, more humane land governance in India.
