The document compares India's Land Acquisition Act of 1894 and the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act (LARR Act) of 2013. The 1894 Act focused on facilitating land acquisition for government projects, with little consideration for affected landowners. The 2013 LARR Act aimed to ensure fair compensation, thorough resettlement, and rehabilitation of those affected by land acquisition. It introduced social impact assessments, consent requirements, and increased compensation rates compared to the 1894 Act.

In India, the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 gives the right for Government authorities to acquire parcels of land for the implementation of development projects.. In the context of a rapid growth of cities, the process of urbanisation shall accompany the needs of increasing populations. Thus, the Government tends to make use of his eminent domain power –the right to acquire land for a public purpose- very regularly. However, in practice, this process can imply the displacement of the affected landowners, whom are sometimes forced to give away their property in exchange of compensations. These events contributed to feed people’s bitterness for this practice, and the proposed Reforms of the Land Acquisition Act got stalled. Moreover, land acquisition can be extremely costly, and this can compromise the well implementation of related development projects.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

1. LAND ACQUISITION 1894
AND LARR 2013
Land Acquisition is the process by which the government acquires private property for public
purpose, till 2013 land acquisition in India was governed by Land Acquisition Act of 1894
2. • Shortcomings of Land Acquisition Act
• The land Acquisition Act, 2013, was amended in 2015 which resulted in the following shortcomings:
• The Social Impact Assessment was a must for every acquisition in the Act but the mandatory
requirement was removed for security, defence, rural infrastructure and industrial corridor projects in
the amendment.
• Consent is not mandatory for government projects in the latest amendment. This can result in forceful
evictions of land owners, without proper alternate arrangements for their rehabilitation and
resettlement.
• Earlier, multi-cropped land could not be acquired for any purpose but according to the latest
amendment, even multi-crop irrigated land can be acquired for security and social infrastructure
projects.
3. • The aim here, is to draw a comparison between the Land Acquisition Act of 1894 and 2013. The idea
behind such a comparison is to compare the purpose of both these Acts as the former was enacted
keeping in mind acquisition of land and the latter was enforced with the main principle being fair
compensation which is to be achieved via resettlement and rehabilitation with complete procedural
transparency.
Land acquisition in India is governed by the Land Acquisition Act of 1894 (the 1894 Act), Land
Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Bill of 2013 (the 2013 Act) and Land Acquisition,
Rehabilitation and resettlement Ordinance, 2015 (the 2015 Bill).
4. • On the basis of this, the award payable as compensation had to be increased almost 4 times to the
estimated local market value in rural areas and at least two times the market value in the urban areas.
The Act makes Rehabilitation and Resettlement (R&R) package to be paid to all affected parties along
with compensation for lost assets as mandatory. In terms of determining the ambit of who constitutes
as an affected party, the Act expands it to be inclusive of individuals and families who depended upon
the land as their primary source of livelihood. This also includes tenants, agricultural workers,
beneficiaries etc., The contents of the R&R package are inclusive of resettlement allowances,
transportation costs, a stipend for a year etc.
• The Act requires a Social Impact Assessment (SIA) to be conducted which helps in identifying who the
affected families are and how to calculate the social impact on the acquired land. An independent
committee of experts examine the SIA while the administrative committee reviews it to see how well it
serves the needs of the public along with a comparison between the costs and benefits of a project. In
case of a multi-cropped land, the Act proposes to not acquire such a land however, this is subject to
certain special circumstances. Further, disputes arising from there are referred to a specially constituted
body and the civil courts have no jurisdiction over matters arising thereof.
5. MAJOR DIFFERENCES BETWEEN LAND ACQUISITION ACT OF 1894 AND
THE RIGHT TO FAIR COMPENSATION AND TRANSPARENCY IN LAND
ACQUISITION, REHABILITATION AND RESETTLEMENT ACT, 2013.
• 1. The title
1894 - The name of old law sounds like the primary purpose was the acquisition of land.
2013 - The title has been amended to reflect the principle objective of the new Bill is fair
compensation, thorough resettlement and rehabilitation of those affected, adequate safeguards
for their well-being and complete transparency in the process of land acquisition.
• 2. Forced acquisitions
1894 once the acquiring authority has formed the intention to acquire a particular plot of land, it
can carry out the acquisition regardless of how the person whose land is sought to be acquired is
affected.
2013 In cases where PPP projects are involved or acquisition is taking place for private companies,
the Bill requires the consent of no less than 70% and 80% respectively (in both cases) of those
whose land is sought to be acquired. This ensures that no forcible acquisition can take place.
6. • 3. No safeguards
There is no real appeal mechanism to stop the process of the acquisition. A hearing
(under section 5A) is prescribed but this is not a discussion or negotiation. The views
expressed are not required to be taken on board by the officer conducting the
hearing.
2013 – provides Multiple checks and balances. It involves the participation of local
Panchayati Raj institutions prior to the start of any acquisition proceeding.
Monitoring committees at the national and state levels to ensure that R&R
obligations are met have also been established.
• 4. Silent on resettlement and rehabilitation of those displaced:
There are absolutely no provisions in the 1894 law relating to the resettlement and
rehabilitation of those displaced by the acquisition.
2013 – This law links land acquisition and the accompanying obligations for
resettlement and rehabilitation
7. • 5. Urgency clause:
This is the most criticized section of the Law. The clause never truly defines what
constitutes an urgent need and leaves it to the discretion of the acquiring authority.
As a result almost all acquisitions under the Act invoke the urgency clause. This
results in the complete dispossession of the land without even the token satisfaction
of the processes listed under the Act.
• 6. Low rates of compensation:
1894 - The rates paid for the land acquired are the prevailing circle rates in the area
which are outdated and hence not even remotely indicative of the actual rates
prevailing in the area.
2013 Bill proposes the payment of compensations that are up to four times the
market value in rural areas and twice the market value in urban areas.
8. • Also 2013 bill speaks about Retrospective operation, multiple checks and balances,
special safeguards for tribal communities and other disadvantaged groups,
compensation for livelihood losers, caps on acquisition of multi-crop and agricultural
land, return of unutilized land, exemption from income tax and stamp duty, time-
bound social impact assessment, Share in developed land, damage to crops to be
included in price, affected family to include tenants, monthly subsistence allowance
etc.
