An 81-year-old resident of Mira Road has approached Prime Minister Narendra Modi, seeking intervention in a decades-old land dispute in Bhayander East in Mumbai. Asgarali Vohra met the Prime Minister on September 8 and requested a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the matter.
During his meeting with the Prime Minister, Vohra sought his intervention, stating that he has been pursuing the land dispute through various government agencies and the police for several years. The dispute concerns around 2,810 square metres of land at Navghar in Bhayander East, according to Vohra. He said he had purchased the property through a registered agreement in 1989. A police case was registered in connection with the dispute in 2015.
Vohra said that despite the complaint, he continued approaching the revenue authorities, municipal administration and police departments seeking a resolution.
Following his meeting with PM Modi, the matter has received renewed attention from the local administration. A hearing has now been scheduled for September 16, with representatives of Swayam Builders and Seven Eleven Constructions directed to remain present.
