Land disputes occur when two or more parties claim ownership or rights to a specific piece of land. These conflicts can arise between individuals, communities, or even governments, often leading to legal battles. Common causes include unclear property boundaries, inheritance issues, and competing land use interests. Such disputes can have significant social and economic impacts, affecting livelihoods and community relations. In many cases, resolution may involve mediation, legal proceedings, or government intervention. Effective land management and clear documentation of ownership can help prevent these conflicts from escalating.
