Farmers from other states can buy farmland in gujarat ?

Sunil Kulshrestha (Querist) 22 July 2021 This query is : Resolved
I inherited farmland from my ancestors & now own my agricultural land in UP, I would like to buy agricultural land in Ahmedabad-Gujarat. But I am told that only Gujarati farmers having their farmland in Gujarat can buy Farmland in Gujarat. I have read Gujarat Highcourt orders of 2012 but still, it seems Gujarat Government is not allowing farmers from other states to buy land in Gujarat. Please suggest.

Quick Summary

Currently, it appears that only farmers who already own farmland within Gujarat are permitted to purchase agricultural land in the state. While there are Gujarat High Court orders from 2012, the government's stance seems to restrict sales to non-Gujarati farmers. However, it's suggested that the District Collector may have the power to grant exceptions in specific deserving cases. Consulting a local lawyer is advisable for professional guidance.
