1,730 Acres in Sultan Mahmood Ghaznavi Town Taken Over in Ghazni Province

A total of 1,730 acres in Sultan Mahmood Ghaznavi Town have been taken over in Ghazni Province, including lands previously privately owned.

The Ministry of Justice of Taliban announced that the land seizure was carried out following a ruling by a local religious court, according to spokesman Barkatullah Rasooli.

Out of the total 1,730 acres, 915 acres had previously been under private ownership by individuals and families, while the remaining areas were vacant or unclaimed.

Earlier, nearly 2,000 acres of land in the Nowabad township of Ghazni were similarly taken under official control, indicating a pattern of consolidation in the province.

Since regaining authority in Afghanistan, numerous townships and agricultural lands across Ghazni Province have been brought under centralized administration, reshaping property control and local governance.

Authorities described the action as compliant with local judicial decisions, emphasizing legal and administrative procedures as the basis for the land acquisition.

The announcement highlighted that affected lands include residential and agricultural areas, impacting local communities and individuals who previously held property rights.

Taliban claim the seizure is part of broader governance and regulatory measures aimed at organizing land ownership and resolving disputes within the province.

The land acquisition in Sultan Mahmood Ghaznavi Town underscores ongoing administrative changes in Ghazni Province, reflecting the continuing restructuring of property control across the region.
