The army, CRPF, and other security forces have occupied illegally state and private land of people in 21 of the 22 districts in Jammu and Kashmir since 1985. They have established their cantonments, camps, bases, artillery training grounds and other setups. The state government and the local residents have time and again raised the demand with the Government of India and defence ministry to vacate the land so that government and people could use for development and other useful purposes. However, the defence ministry has not yet responded positively to the demands. People are not allowed to move into these areas; grazing of cattle is not permitted; people's right to work being violated; In the majority of cases, the livelihood of farmers has been affected.
