| Ex-NC MLA likely to face action for renting out community land to armed forces | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 31: District administration Anantnag has written a letter to the Anti-Corruption Bureau Srinagar for taking appropriate action against former National Conference MLA from Pahalgam for collecting rent from a piece of encroached community land.
District Administration Anantnag has exposed another scam where senior National Conference leader and former MLA from Pahalgam assembly constituency Altaf Kaloo was collecting rent on encroached land.
After establishing that the NC leader was collecting rent from the Defence Estates Department, District Administration Anantnag initiated action against MLA and his close relatives for encroachment on Shamilat land.
Reports said that a patch of Shamilat land in excess of 100 kanals at Defence Estates Jammu in Aishmuqam has been delineated as “proprietary land” by tampering with revenue records. The former legislator has been receiving rent on this piece of land while factually the said land is section 4 Shamilat land and belongs to the community.
According to reports, the said land has been rented out to the armed forces against payment of rent. “The matter is currently under investigation and the quantum of rent received fraudulently from the armed forces is being assessed and shall be recovered”, reports said. While the tampered revenue records have already been expunged by way of legal procedures, the rent shall be recovered after assessment of the amount in coordination with armed forces.
In a letter written to the Defence Estates Officer Srinagar circle, Assistant Commissioner Anantnag informed that a complaint has been received against the rent released in respect of land under the occupation of Army at village Logripora/ Jummo Tehsil Pahalgam.
“In this context, the Tehsildar Pahalgam vide his letter No. TGPM/OQQ2/1917 dated 28- 01-2023 has informed that the land under Survey No. 107 at village Logripora/Jummo Ashmuqam under the occupation of Army is recorded as Section-4 Shamilat and as such rent of the same be stopped with immediate effect and further necessary action be taken in the matter”, the letter of Assistant Commissioner reads.
The Assistant Commissioner has also forwarded a copy of the letter to the Senior Superintendent of Police, Anti-Corruption Srinagar for information and further necessary action in light of the report. |
