1.  In  India,  buying & selling of Tribal Land is prohibited, by non-tribals.   However  any statutory agency or the Govt. itself may "acquire",    "ANY"  land of anybody, wherever in India.


2.  A Tribal person is entitled to buy or sell Tribal Land,  amongst themselves.


3.  IF you marry a Tribal Woman,  then your Tribal-Wife  can easily buy any land.


4.  On other category of agricultural land,  you cannot construct a  House or a Bungalow or a Palace,  IF YOU ARE NOT A LOCAL RESIDENT, in the records of the gram panchayat.

However you are entitled to build a Farm-House in 1% of the total land holding, with the written permission of the Gram Panchayat,  even if you are not a local resident.


For a broader & general perspective,  please read the following link :
