The major land reforms carried in India were:
(i) Abolition of Zamindari system,
(ii) Consolidation of small land holdings and
(iii) Putting an upper limit or ceiling on the maximum amount of land one can possess.
• Some of these land reforms could not be properly implemented in India because the landowners were very powerful and yielded lot of political influence.
• As a result these land reforms were either not translated into laws or when made into laws, they remained only on papers.
