The formal process of land registration in Afghanistan commenced in the 1960s, and within a decade, approximately 34% of agricultural lands were surveyed and documented. However, subsequent political upheavals and prolonged internal conflicts severely disrupted this initiative, leading to the gradual neglect of state-owned land registration and management.
The failure of previous administrations to effectively oversee state-owned land management resulted in two major consequences. First, influential individuals unlawfully appropriated state-owned land for personal and commercial purposes. Second, the implementation of public infrastructure projects encountered significant obstacles, ultimately hampering national development and adversely impacting the socio-economic well-being of citizens.
Preliminary estimates indicate that approximately four million jeribs of state-owned land have been illegally occupied across the country.
Over the past two decades, successive governments have attempted to address this issue by establishing various administrative structures and formulating legal and technical frameworks to regulate land affairs within an integrated system. These efforts aimed to ensure the effective management of state-owned land and harness them for developmental and economic purposes. Despite these initiatives, state-owned land governance remained largely ineffective, leading to an unprecedented rise in land disputes and illegal occupations.
With the reestablishment of the Islamic Emirate, the management of state-owned land has become a national priority. Recognizing the critical importance of this issue, the government has undertaken decisive legal and technical reforms to revitalize Afghanistan’s land administration system, which had long been neglected.
Addressing the legal and technical challenges in land administration has created an enabling environment for the strategic planning and implementation of national programs related to land management. The Islamic Emirate has adopted a structured approach to land governance, emphasizing the rational utilization of state-owned land to facilitate economic growth and infrastructure development.
One of the most significant measures undertaken by the Islamic Emirate is the large-scale initiative to reclaim illegally occupied state-owned land. The government remains resolute in its commitment to eradicating this deeply entrenched issue and creating a conducive environment for the implementation of developmental, economic, and public welfare projects.
According to official data, over the past two years, more than 25 million jeribs of state-owned land have been identified. Through concerted efforts, over two million jeribs of land have been successfully reclaimed from illegal occupation.
This initiative is not only vital for safeguarding national assets but also plays a fundamental role in ensuring the strategic and efficient use of state-owned land to promote sustainable economic development and public welfare.
Another key reform introduced by the Islamic Emirate is the systematic registration of state-owned land. This initiative aims to establish an accurate and comprehensive database of state-owned land, resolve longstanding property disputes, and eliminate unlawful land appropriations. Furthermore, a well-documented land registry will foster a more attractive investment climate, encouraging both domestic and foreign investment.
The systematic registration of state-owned land will expedite the implementation of national development projects, ensuring that registered land is effectively allocated for economic and infrastructural initiatives at both the central and provincial levels.
The Islamic Emirate remains steadfast in its commitment to strengthening land governance as a cornerstone of national development. By accelerating land registration and ensuring the strategic utilization of state-owned assets, the government seeks to advance public welfare projects, stimulate economic growth, create employment opportunities, and improve the overall socio-economic conditions of the nation.
