Controversial Property Capture: SR Mehrauli Accused of Multi-Crore Scheme, Southern District Revenue Department Faces Scrutiny

Suspicions arose when Gogia, during the registration process on February 23, refused to proceed until the outstanding amount was settled.

Have you ever heard that someone makes a deal to sell a property for Rs 38 crore and later sells the same property to the same person with mutual consent for Rs 10 crore? But such a case has come to light in the country’s capital. In which a builder is accused of getting the property registries of an elderly disabled person in his name in connivance with the sub-registrar and revenue officers. According to the documents revealed in this case, the role of Southern District DM M. Chaitanya Prasad is also being questioned.

This is the whole matter

Gogiya Farm is located on Church Mall Road in Vasant Kunj. Farm owner Monica Gogia had signed an agreement with builder Shaili Thapar to sell its four thousand-yard portion. Under the agreement, Thapar made an advance payment of Rs 10 crore for this deal of Rs 38 crore and promised to pay the remaining amount before registration. After this, on February 23, Monica Gogia was taken to the Mehrauli Sub Registrar’s office, and the documentary formalities were completed. Monica Gogia appeared before the sub-registrar and refused to permit registration until the outstanding amount was paid. After this, when he became suspicious, on February 27, he lodged a complaint and gave complete information about the case to Sub Registrar Shobha Toula and DM M. Chaitanya Prasad’s office and requested that he not get the registration done.

The game of the vicious sub-registrar!

It is alleged that Sub Registrar Shobha Taula, accused of collusion in the case, played a trick on the accused builder and gave notice to Gogiya, giving him time to reply within three days. But this notice written on February 29 was sent on the third day, i.e., March 2. Due to this, the role of the subregistrar seems doubtful. Monica Gogia says that she replied to this notice received on the evening of March 4 within the stipulated time. Despite this, the registrar ignored all the facts and registered her property in the name of builder Shaili Thapar.

Builder cleaning

When builder Shaili Thapar was questioned in this matter, his lawyer, Tarjit Singh, told him that the deadline for the deal to buy the property for Rs 38 crore had ended on February 10. Which the Thapar family itself had canceled through public notice on March 2. Therefore, the matter of not paying the dues under that agreement is wrong. He says that he has got two registries done for the four thousand-yard plot without making any new agreement. This agreement and deal were done with mutual consent between Gogiya and Thapar. When he was asked, after the old deal of Rs 38 crore, why and how can someone sell his property for Rs 10 crore within a month? So he said that this is a matter of registry done with mutual consent. As far as construction is concerned on agricultural land, he is not constructing any buildings at present.

The truth of the revenue department

Most of the farm houses that have been built in this entire area are built on agricultural land. This construction is illegal under revenue law. But the revenue officers, who proved themselves to be honest and fair and took action on the minor construction done in this farmer’s field, are seen wagging their tails in front of the influential people. According to sources, the revenue officers of Mehrauli subdividend earn huge income from the farm houses built on agricultural land here.

Municipal robbers

If you remember, recently the High Court compared the corrupt engineers of the Building Department to dacoits. Apart from being dacoits, they are also known as extortion eagles in different areas. Perhaps this is the reason why a big game of extortion through illegal construction has been going on here for the last three years. In which high-ranking officers of the corporation are also included. In this case too, there is an allegation that when elderly disabled person Satish Gogiya complained to the JE of the area, the JE started abusing the victim on the phone.

DM and DCP shrugged it off.

Surprisingly, despite the complaint lodged in this matter in his own office, the DM says that he has no knowledge about it. Whereas, due to the record of corruption being established in the sub-registrar office of his district, an officer has been suspended, and ADM Ankit Aggarwal has been removed from here and put on the waiting list. In this case, the victim also complained to the police station, but the result was a total of three counts. Now, Southern District Police Incharge Ankit Singh says that in the case in which the victim’s family had made PCR calls several times, they have no information about the case.
