Source: <\/strong>This post, enemy property act<\/strong>, has been created based on the article \u201cPervez Musharraf\u2019s ancestral land in UP to be auctioned under Enemy Property Act: What it means\u201d, <\/strong>published in Indian Express <\/strong>on 9th<\/sup> Sep 2024.<\/strong><\/p>\n The Indian government has announced plans to auction a parcel of land in Uttar Pradesh, previously owned by the family of former Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf. The land is being sold under the Enemy Property Act<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The word \u201cenemy\u201d signifies any country that has committed an act of aggression or declared war against the Union of India,<\/p>\n The law defines enemy property as properties left behind by people who migrated to Pakistan and China and\u00a0acquired their citizenship, after the 1947 partition and after subsequent wars (1965 and 1971) with these countries.<\/p>\n 1) Initially<\/strong>, these properties were taken over by the Indian government Under the Defence of India Rules<\/em> (1962<\/strong>) and vested with the Custodian of Enemy Property for India <\/strong>(CEPI<\/strong>).<\/p>\n 2) Enemy Property Act, 1968: In 1968,<\/strong> The Enemy Property Act <\/strong>was enacted to formalize the process. It allowed the government to\u00a0regulate and appropriate properties belonging to those who took Pakistani or Chinese nationality.<\/p>\n Besides real estate, enemy property may also include bank accounts, shares, gold, and other assets of such individuals.<\/p>\n 3) 2017 amendment:<\/strong> The act was amended in 2017<\/strong> to expand the definition of “enemy”.<\/p>\n Now the definition included the legal heirs (in India) of those who migrated and the law of succession does not apply to enemy property. It means their heirs in India cannot make any claim over the enemy property. The properties remain under the Custodian\u2019s control.<\/p>\n The Act also made it clear that once a property is declared \u2018enemy property\u2019, it remains so.<\/p>\n Sales of such properties are overseen by the Ministry of Home Affairs<\/strong> or the Custodian of Enemy Property of India (CEPI)<\/strong>, as disinvestment proceeds deposited into government accounts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Source: This post, enemy property act, has been created based on the article \u201cPervez Musharraf\u2019s ancestral land in UP to be auctioned under Enemy Property Act: What it means\u201d, published in Indian Express on 9th Sep 2024.
