Explanation:

Laws and rules restricting land purchase vary from state to state in India. Schedules Five and Six of the Constitution contain provisions to administer and control Scheduled Areas.

Section 118 does not put an absolute ban on the sale and purchase of land and property in Himachal. It only restricts the transfer of land to a person who is not an agriculturalist of the state, including even the non-agriculturalists of the state. Section 118, however, has provisions through which, with the approval of the government, one can buy both land and property in the state.
