Property Rights in India

Contact owners and managers

1–30 of 1087

The "Property Rights in India" egroup is dedicated to encourage discussion on all issues related to land and property, with the aim of improving our understanding of the economic, social, and political contexts of the issues. So that this critical right may be better protected, particularly for the weaker and marginal sections of society. Also, to explore ways of creating a functioning market, with least transaction cost, in an open and transparent environment, to enable the optimum use of these resources. So that the obstacles that artificially sustain a mismatch between supply and demand for these resources may be drastically reduced or even eliminated.
