The Punjab and Haryana High Court on Thursday stayed the implementation of the land pooling policy and gave the Punjab Government four weeks.
“We will stay the policy and give you time to address the concerns,” the Bench of Justice Anupinder Grewal and Justice Deepak Manchanda observed, before parting with the case.
At the onset, the High Court reiterated its concerns regarding the lack of provision for the rehabilitation of landless labourers and others dependent on land for their sustenance.
