Various States with restriction on land purchase.
Additional Himachal also have the restriction. Source- https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/archive/kaleidoscope/who-can-cannot-buy-land-in-himachal-819058/ The primary reason for these restrictions are to protect small land holdings of farmers. For Example- In Himachal, 60% of the farmers hold less than 1.2 Acres of land. Only 10% of the states land is under cultivation. 70% of land is dorest land. So if you allow outsiders to buy agriculture land, to build their "second home" or "Vacation home", locals will have to give up their First and only home. I'm very happy Uttarakhand is finally bringing a strict land law similar to that of Himachal Pradesh. It will go a long way in protecting the interest of small farmers. Additional it will conserve their culture, environment, ecology, customs, traditions etc.3
