Is it legal for the government to requisition land to build private houses?

1. It is illegal for the government to requisition land to build private houses. 2. After the government expropriated the land, the land ownership changed from collective ownership to state ownership. Private houses need to go through the relevant procedures of the township government and the land department, win the land by public transfer, and carry out construction according to the requirements of construction planning. "Land Management Law" Article 44 Where the land occupied for construction involves the conversion of agricultural land into construction land, the examination and approval procedures for the conversion of agricultural land shall be handled. The conversion of permanent basic farmland into construction land shall be approved by the State Council. In order to implement the overall land use planning of cities, villages and market towns, if agricultural land other than permanent basic farmland is converted into construction land, the organ that originally approved the overall land use planning or its authorized organ shall, in accordance with the provisions of the State Council, approve it in batches according to the annual land use plan. Within the approved scope of agricultural land conversion, the land for specific construction projects can be approved by the municipal or county people's governments. The conversion of agricultural land other than permanent basic farmland into construction land outside the scope of construction land for cities, villages and market towns determined in the overall land use planning shall be approved by the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government authorized by the State Council or the State Council.
