"Land remains concentrated with dominant castes—but inspiring efforts like in Kuthambakkam, where the Panchayat renamed localities with neutral names to destigmatize Dalit rights ensuring inclusion, exemplifies importance of empowering Panchayats to enable Dalit Land Rights.”

Only 13% of women in India own land, yet 60–70% are the ones actually working it—especially in rural, migrant households where women ensure food security today and for the future. It’s time to shift the lens: women land rights aren’t just about ownership—they’re about livelihood.

Urban land is locked in endless court battles—but whose battles are these, really? While land lies tangled in files, the most marginalized, especially Dalits, are denied dignity and rights. Justice delayed isn’t just denied—it’s designed. #DalitLivesMatter #LandJustice

Mr Nandakumar Siva spoke about his work which focuses on Panchayati Raj Institutions, while working with institutions which are very close to people to enhance access to governance. They simplify complex rules and laws of Panchayati Raj Act in TN in the form of FAQs.

Dr Kalpana Satish moderated the panel on women land rights emphasising the role of caste and patriarchy. She also focused on the need to define what land and land rights mean. While only 13% of agricultural lands are owned by women 70% is their workforce participation.

Dr V Anitha discussed her studies on active and passive exclusion of Dalits and marginalised. Her study explores biodiversity conservation done by communities and how government actors and mechanisms affect it.

Dr R Soundarya Iyer shared learnings from her study in 3 villages focusing on labor, land and credit options and opportunities. Industrial jobs are first taken up by men leaving women in the fields to be underpaid. Concurrently, women prefer working in non-agricultural sectors.
