When economist Hernando de Soto was on a book tour in Indonesia, he decided to prove that it is possible to trace the owners of lands outside the ambit of formal law. He strolled through rice fields to illustrate his point. Whenever he crossed from one field to another, a different dog barked. Dogs knew something which many of the finest minds in that country did not know.
Also, It is in this context we should examine the recent reports on land records in Hyderabad's Rangareddy district. In the district, land worth Rs 20,000 crore is entangled in legal battles because records are vague. Nearly 17,000 acres of government land in the district is either usurped by encroachers or locked in litigation. Poor maintenance of land records and lack of transparency are among the major reason behind this.
