Bhartiya Kisan Union staged a
dharna in protest against the increasing land grabbing incident in the outskirt
area of city outside the commissioner office at Lucknow on Monday, which is
dispossessing the farmers from the lands.
Imran Khan, Zonal secretary of
BKU alleged, “The farmers in Lucknow are the victims of land documents irregularities by
the local administration and were pushed from pillar to post. The
administration is stifling the natural voice of justice. The mosque has been
displaced on papers from origin spot. All the activities have been done to grab
the lands of farmers."
He added the outskirt area of
city Lucknow is under urbanization. The lands adjoining IIM Lucknow are the
fields of farmers who have been dispossessed by force of goons.
Mr Khan said, “We have filed
many complaint to the local administration against Sahaj Sahkari Awas Samiti,
but all the efforts have been futile. No action has been taken by the
administration against these illegal possessions on 2 Bighas and 18 Biswas of
lands so far.”
He said the high profile persons
are the shareholders in the Samiti; therefore the action of administration resulted
as a damp squib.
The administration has disposed
and issued order on the land litigation ex-parte in 13-14 days trial without
summoning defendant, while administration was also a party.
According to the information,
Ram Ziawan had filed an application to sell to other caste his land in 2005,
after inducing of dishonesty he filed an application to the Additional
Commissioner Office for canceling the permission he had got from district
magistrate office. The additional commissioner allowed cancellation without
summoning the defendant.
The government's arid land have
been encroached by land grabbers about 6
and ½ Bighas near Dubagga petrol pump adjoining to Bardani Mandir
