There is a lack of clarity in the laws, for this, let us tell you that the new land laws in Jammu & Kashmir are mainly under Section 371, similar to the land laws in Himachal, Uttarakhand & other states. The rest of the rules have been applied here to protect the structure lead and there is a restriction in its purchase. The old laws were antithetical to other states of the country because they were old. Simple laws were needed. The Consul said 11 laws have been repealed.
