Solution
The purpose of land ceiling was to reduce the concentration of land ownership in a few hands.
Explanation:
The purpose of land ceiling was to promote equity in agriculture by fixing the maximum amount of land an individual could own. Surplus land beyond this limit was taken over by the government and redistributed among small farmers or landless labourers, thus reducing the concentration of land ownership in a few hands. This ensured fairer land distribution and encouraged better agricultural productivity.
