Usage of another person’s land - Right of way, Right to Air, - basic rights to enjoy own land

Section 4 of the Indian Easement Act, 1982, defines “easement” as the right which allows the usage of another person’s land for a designated purpose. This Act takes the non-possessory rights of property into consideration. Thus, it allows one to use certain facilities without emphasising much on the title and ownership. Right to air, light, and right of way are some basic examples of easement property rights.
