Land Conflict Summary

Residents of Ugras and Nagnechinagar villages in Jodhpur district had been opposing a solar power plant by Essel Saurya Urja Company of Rajasthan Limited (ESUCRL), a joint venture of the state and IL&FS Energy Development Company Limited. The plant is proposed over 331.1 hectares of land in Ugras, listed in government records as ‘barren’ or ‘wasteland’. The solar plant is expected to generate 750 megawatt of power.

The proposed land is home to dhanis (a cluster of houses in the middle of a field), which the residents claimed were built 40-45 years ago, and is also used to cultivate crops. They claimed that they were not informed about the land allocation to ESUCRL and that they had complete rights over the land. According to them, the land in question includes water tanks, hills, oran, rivers, schools, temple and residential houses and, thus, is used by the community.

In 2018, the residents protested outside the sub-division office in Phalodi, Jodhpur, and demanded that the project be stopped. They also submitted a memorandum. The same year, they filed a case in the High Court of Rajasthan for cancellation of land allotment of 331 hectares in Ugras, but the court dismissed the petition, citing lack of adequate evidence to ascertain whether the said land was being used for public utilities or not. The court had ordered a survey to determine this, but there was no official update on whether the survey was conducted.

One of the petitioners informed LCW that they did not wish to pursue the matter after the court's verdict.

Court decision not in favour of community

In Ugras village in Jodhpur, the residents had demanded that the land allotted to Essel Saurya Urja Limited be cancelled on the grounds that the land is being used for public utility. However, the demand was rejected both by a single-judge bench of the Rajasthan high court as well as a division bench of the court, citing lack of adequate evidence to ascertain whether the said land was being used for public utilities or not. After the court order, the petitioners did not pursue the matter further.

Main Reasoning/Decision of court

On November 27, 2019, a single-judge bench of the Rajasthan high court, in cases CW-5707/2018 and CW-11551/2018, had dismissed the claim made by petitioners that the allotment of land to Adani Renewable Energy Park Rajasthan Limited (AREPRL) is contrary to the provisions of Section 16 of the Rajasthan Tenancy Act, 1955. The counsel for the state submitted that the company was a joint venture, in which state had a 50 per cent shareholding. The counsel also stated that the establishment of solar parks would not be a nuisance to the residents and that the company would remain confined to only the land granted to it. Further, he claimed there was no evidence of pollution due to the establishment of the solar park. The court accepted this claim and dismissed the petition. Using the same reasoning, the judge dismissed cases CW-16304/2018 and CW-16305/2018, which had a different respondent - Essel Saurya Urja Company of Rajasthan Limited. The court dismissed the petition for cancellation of land allotment of 331 hectares in Ugras village and 402 hectares in Nagnechinagar village, citing lack of adequate evidence to ascertain whether the said land was being used for public utilities or not. The petitioners in the above cases preferred an appeal before the division bench of the high court. The court recorded the submissions of both parties at length and concluded that the petitioners had not provided sufficient evidence. The court also noted that the petitioners had not placed any record of their possession of the lands which had been allotted to ESUCRL nor was there any record of them having cultivator possession. The court further cited cases such as Jagpal Singh v. State of Punjab and Ors. and Hinch Lal Tiwari v. Kamla Devi and Ors. to emphasise that the state should refrain from allotting land falling near waterbodies like nala, tank, etc.
