Reforms in land administration

This news of great relief for the nation was published in some Bangla dailies on 28 July'07. The news said that the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC), after a case study in Narsinghdi, is setting its hands on yet another most burning issue that is causing unimaginable sufferings to our people for generations. I believe there is no such individual rich or poor, literate or illiterate, in cities or in villages, powerful or weak, who did not suffer in the hands of tahsilders, sub-registrars , district registrars and other land record officials.
This is an age old problem. Statistics will fail to estimate how many have suffered and how many are suffering since the British days. Due to corruption many have become landless and destitute. In this short letter it is not possible to highlight the magnitude of corruption in the land administration.
I wholeheartedly pray that the present CTG will ameliorate the sufferings of our people by setting the land records right.
