This Act governs the eviction of people who occupy government property without proper permission in the state of Arunachal Pradesh. It applies to land and buildings owned by the state government or its public sector undertakings. The law empowers appointed Estate Officers to issue notices to unauthorized occupants, giving them a chance to show cause, and ultimately allows for their removal if they fail to do so. This ensures that public premises are not misused and are available for official or government purposes.
