Land market distortions

I have an op-ed in Indian Express today on distortions in India's land markets.

hi,
read your excellent column in the IE. two points:

1. not sure i understood why "mission mode" for updating land records would lead to litigation.

2. also you didn't mention removal of rent control, rural land ceiling. do you believe that those are important steps towards fixing the land market in india.

thanks,
regards,

Excellent article Sir! It intrigues me that of late the price of certain prime real estate parcels of land in cities like Vijaywada and Vizag stand no less to that of Lower Manhattan and San Francisco. This is indeed troubling...
