The Punjab government has announced a major initiative to provide free agricultural land to eligible landless farmers under its rural development and agricultural empowerment program. The scheme is designed to improve land ownership access, promote agricultural productivity, and support long-term rural economic stability.
Under the program, qualifying farmers will be allotted between 3 and 5 acres of cultivable state-owned land to enable them to establish independent farming operations and secure sustainable sources of income. The initiative forms part of broader efforts to enhance agricultural output and ensure more effective utilization of public land resources.
Officials stated that the scheme is intended to empower small and landless farmers by providing direct access to agricultural land, which remains a critical asset for economic security and rural development. By facilitating land ownership, the program is expected to strengthen farming capacity, reduce rural poverty, and encourage productive land use.
Agricultural and land policy observers noted that improved access to land plays a key role in supporting agricultural sustainability, strengthening rural communities, and enhancing the long-term value and productivity of agricultural property assets across Punjab.

Authorities have imposed Section 144 across Punjab, enforcing a 30-day ban on outdoor drone operations in response to security concerns. The measure aims to strengthen security arrangements and protect public spaces, residential areas, and sensitive locations.
According to the official notification, the use of drones in open and outdoor locations is strictly prohibited, and violations may result in legal action. The restriction has been implemented as part of precautionary measures to ensure public safety and maintain law and order. However, limited use of small camera drones has been permitted for indoor events held in halls and marquees.
