Want to buy property of kudmi caste which comes under CNT act

Dear Client,
The Chotanagpur Tenancy Act(CNT Act) is equally applicable to both Dhanbad and Bokaro districts in the state of Jharkhand. However, the Kurmi caste is generally classified as Other Backward Class (OBC) and is not considered a Scheduled Caste (SC). Section 42 of the SC/ST Act, 1989, prohibits the sale of SC/ST land without the approval of the competent authority. This law was enacted to protect the interests of the SC/ST tribe. However, one can acquire SC/ST land by obtaining permission from the DM or the Collector concerned. When one is from the general caste, he/she would have to go through a lengthy procedure to obtain SC/ST land. A tribal(SC/ST) can purchase land from a non-tribal person, but he/she can not sell the property to a non-tribal person. The Hon'ble Supreme Court rules that land belonging to the SC/ST class can't be purchased by non-SC/ST( General Class/OBC class, including companies, societies, and corporations). It's unconstitutional and illegal. The ruling by the Supreme Court in this regard is only for the government-granted land and not for the land bought by persons belonging to the SC/ST community on their own. However, you should consult with a local Advocate or visit the office of the DM/Collector concerned for more clarification in this regard.
