Illegal colonization is spreading day and night in the district at a quadruple speed. The situation has become such that except one or two colonizers in the district, 100 percent of the colonizers are engaged in cutting illegal colonies on the pretext of valid colonies. The responsibility of controlling these illegal colonies has been entrusted to the patwaris of the Revenue Department, but the condition of the patwaris is that they do not see these illegal colonies despite roaming in the field. The special thing is that in this regard, orders have been issued from the collector’s office, addressing not only the tehsildars but also the chief municipal officers and patwaris, that the unauthorized colonies being cut in their area should be verified and informed to the office. More than three months have passed since the order was issued, but till date none of the patwaris have certified whether illegal colonies are being cut in their light or not. If we talk about the ground, there will hardly be any light where illegal colonies are not being cut indiscriminately, but the patwaris do not see this illegal colonization. In such a situation, if it is said that the heavy patwari on the orders of the collector, then it will probably not be an exaggeration.
Illegal colonizing by lifting the wall
Now the colonizers have found a new way of illegal colonizing, they first get the wall built around their land in the urban area and then after getting the map made at the private level, putting the roads of the mud in it, the customers are given such a bluff. That it is a walled colony and is being cut following the entire rules. In this way the colonizers are engaged in defrauding the general public by selling the land at the price of gold. These colonies are visible to all, but are not visible to the patwari who roams in his light everyday. If we talk about urban areas, then in rural areas including Maniyar, railway station, all illegal colonies are being cut around Singh Niwas, Fourlane. But these colonies are not visible to the patwaris of the said lightweight. So far, no certification has been presented from these circles regarding illegal colonies in the present situation, while on Sunday also the work of cutting illegal colonies has been captured in the cameras of Naiduniya.
After the colony is cut, submit the report
According to the sources associated with the Revenue Department, the Patwaris have prepared a fund by which they not only get the illegal colony cut down but also themselves are saved from coming under the JD of action for not reporting. For this, the Patwari is completely in the role of Gandhari till the time the colony is being cut. When the colony is completely cut, then the Patwari informs the concerned officer about the illegal colony. In such a situation, illegal colony cutting is not being curbed. Reliable sources reveal that the patwaris get a hefty amount from the colonizers for the late submission of reports.
Patwari’s participation in illegal colony
Reliable sources even say that dozens of patwaris of the district have participation in these illegal colonies. Patwari is working as silent partner in illegal colonies. Among such patwaris, there are many patwaris who were posted in urban areas for the first years, but when the officials became strict on illegal colonies, they have now got their transfers done in rural areas, so that they do not face any kind of action. If the officials investigate the old cases, then the black letters of many patwaris will come to the fore.
If there is an investigation, many patwaris will go to jail
If we talk about the law, then there is a provision in section 339-G of the MP Municipality Act 1961 that to prevent the construction of illegal colony, the competent officials and their subordinates, despite knowing about the construction of illegal colony, ignore it and take legal action. Otherwise, they will be liable to imprisonment for a term which may extend to three years.
they say
We are constantly trying to stop illegal colonization. After the order issued by the officials, we have directed all the Halka Patwaris to submit the report of illegal colonies being cut in their light. The FIRs that have taken place recently have been based on the report of the patwaris. Despite this, you are telling that illegal colonies are being cut rapidly in Maniyar, Railway Station and Singh Niwas area, so I get them to be shown.
