The farmer alleged that his land was fraudulently taken away by the land mafia with the connivance of officers.
Shankarlal stated within the video that since nobody listened to his grievance throughout Tuesday’s public listening to, he determined to roll on the ground of the Collector’s workplace in protest.
Mandsaur Collector Dilip Yadav on Wednesday denied the allegations.
“Primarily based on the findings of the spot investigation, no individual/land mafia has occupied the land in query,” he stated in an official launch. Yadav stated a grievance has been lodged with the Divisional Justice of the Peace relating to the grievance raised by Shankar Lal in the course of the public listening to. Justice of the Peace (SDM) and Tessildar sought a report. It was discovered that Shankarlal and his household collectively owned 3.52 hectares of land.
One of many co-owners, Sampat Bai, bought a part of her land to Ashwin Deshmukh in 2010, however the purchaser is but to take possession of the land, the discharge stated.
Quite the opposite, Shankarlal was not solely discovered to be in possession of land belonging to him but additionally occupied the portion owned by Sampat Bai, the discharge stated.
The collector stated that based on the SDM of Sitamau, no individual or land mafia occupied the land in query. He stated in a press launch that if the federal government receives any grievance of unlawful occupation of the stated land, motion will probably be taken as per the provisions of the legislation.
Madhya Pradesh Congress president Jitu Patwari referred to Shankarlal rolling on the ground of Mandsaur collector’s workplace, terming it “extremely condemnable” and demanded that these “concerned” within the matter be prosecuted Officers take motion and search justice for “harassed” farmers.
