The Uttar Pradesh Recovery of Damages to Public and Private Property Act, 2020 (Hindi: Lok Tatha Niji Sampatti Kashti Vsooli Adhyadesh, 2020) is a law in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh that was promulgated by the state governor, Anandiben Patel, on 15 March 2020.

[1][2] It was passed by the Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly on 22 August 2020.

[3] The Act aims at "recovery of damage to public or private property during hartal, bandhs, riots, protests etc through those accused through claim tribunals with no judicial review by any other court.

[4][5] Deviating from the normal legal process in India wherein the burden of proof lies on the accuser (Investigating Agencies), this ordinance expects the accused to present evidence of innocence from alleged crimes, on account of simply them being named as accused.

[5] The Supreme Court of India had said in 2007 that a "strong law" was needed to deal with the damage to property during political protests.
