Punjab Gram Panchayat (Common Purposes Land) Eviction and Rent Recovery Act, 1976

This Act gives Gram Panchayats the legal authority to remove unauthorized occupants from land reserved for village communal use. It applies specifically to areas managed by panchayats that are designated for common purposes, treating them similarly to public premises to facilitate eviction and rent collection. The law establishes a special appeal process where disputes are handled by a Joint Director of Panchayats, ensuring that local authorities have the tools to manage village properties effectively and resolve conflicts fairly.
