Abstract: Land is a raging issue that directly affects the enjoyment of various human rights. It is a mean, if not the most important mean of survival for many individuals and is a fundamental as well as economic right. Land is most related mainly to the identities of individuals, and as a result, intensely connected to various social, traditional and cultural rights. More and more of ethnic minorities, are forcibly driven out or dispossessed from their land. The Bengali Settlement Program is just one of the names for all the dispossession caused to the tribal and ethnic sects. The focal point of this paper is to find out the violation of land rights for the tribal people from the pre-independence to current time. This article also goes on to explore these sides and tries to come up with some solutions.
