Bare Act

The Kerala Land Relinquishment Act, 1958

This Act allows registered landholders, cultivating tenants, and intermediaries to legally surrender their ownership rights to the Government of Kerala. It applies to those who possess the land and wish to transfer it to the state without encumbrances. The process involves applying to a revenue officer, notifying local interests, and allowing objections before the transfer is finalized. This legislation essentially streamlines the acquisition of land by the state, enabling administrative expansion and ensuring that land transfers are conducted fairly through a governed procedure.
