अतिक्रमित सरकारी जग्गा जोगाउन रावल आयोगको प्रतिवेदन कार्यान्वयन सुरुGovernment Moves to Implement Rawal Commission Report, Freeze on Encroached Public Land Begins
सरकारले सरकारी र सार्वजनिक जग्गा अतिक्रमणविरुद्ध ठोस कदम चाल्न थालेको छ। रावल आयोगले बुझाएको प्रतिवेदनमा उल्लिखित अतिक्रमित जग्गाहरूको स्वामित्व परिवर्तन रोक्ने प्रक्रिया अघि बढाइएको छ।
भूमि व्यवस्था, सहकारी तथा गरिबी निवारण मन्त्रालयले भूमि व्यवस्थापन तथा अभिलेख विभाग र नापी विभागलाई पत्र पठाएर ती जग्गाहरू किनबेच, नामसारी वा अन्य कुनै तरिकाले व्यक्तिको नाममा जान नदिन रोक्का राख्न निर्देशन दिएको छ।
सरकारी तथा सार्वजनिक जग्गा छानबिन एवं संरक्षणसम्बन्धी उच्चस्तरीय आयोगले आफ्नो प्रतिवेदन सरकारलाई बुझाइसकेको थियो। मन्त्रिपरिषद्ले उक्त प्रतिवेदन कार्यान्वयन गर्ने निर्णय गर्दै त्यसको प्रभावकारी कार्यान्वयनका लागि आठ सदस्यीय समिति पनि गठन गरिसकेको छ।
प्रतिवेदनमा परेका विवादित र अतिक्रमित जग्गाको हकदैया कसैले पनि सार्न नपाउने गरी सम्बन्धित निकायमार्फत प्रशासनिक र प्राविधिक दुवै प्रक्रिया एकसाथ अघि बढाइएको मन्त्रालयले जनाएको छ।
सार्वजनिक सम्पत्तिमाथि दशकौंदेखि मुठ्ठीभर व्यक्तिले जमाइरहेको कब्जा हटाउने दिशामा सरकारको यो पहललाई विज्ञहरूले महत्त्वपूर्ण कदमका रूपमा हेरेका छन्। तर कार्यान्वयन कति प्रभावकारी हुन्छ भन्ने प्रश्न भने अझै बाँकी नै छ।
The government has taken concrete steps to protect state and public land from encroachment. As part of implementing the Rawal Commission report, authorities have begun the process of blocking any change in ownership of government and public lands identified as encroached in the report.
The Ministry of Land Management, Cooperatives and Poverty Alleviation has written to the Department of Land Management and Records and the Department of Survey, directing both agencies to place an immediate freeze on the identified plots — preventing any sale, transfer of ownership, or other transaction that could move the land into private hands.
The high-level commission formed to investigate and protect government and public land had already submitted its findings to the government. The Cabinet has since formally decided to implement the report's recommendations and has constituted an eight-member committee to oversee and ensure effective execution of those decisions.
Both administrative and technical processes are now being pursued simultaneously through relevant agencies to ensure that ownership of the disputed and encroached lands cannot be altered by anyone, the ministry has stated.
Experts have welcomed the move as a significant step toward reclaiming public assets that a handful of individuals have held under illegal occupation for decades. However, the more pressing question — how rigorously the government will follow through on implementation — remains unanswered, and observers say that is precisely where past efforts of this nature have fallen short.
