Jaipur Real Estate Firm Approaches Lokayukta Over Illegal Land Partition
Rajdarbar Pink City Developers Pvt Ltd, a prominent real estate company based in Jaipur, has taken a significant step by filing a complaint with the Lokayukta, the state-level anti-corruption ombudsman. The complaint is centered around alleged illegal partition of land and unauthorized constructions in the Sanganer area, which the company claims have been ongoing without appropriate action from local authorities.
In its complaint filed on January 7, Rajdarbar Pink City Developers Pvt Ltd, represented by its authorized signatory, Surendra Singh, accused the Sanganer tehsildar and other officials of acting beyond their powers. The company alleges that these officials partitioned prime agricultural land in Jaysinghpura Bas village, Bhankrota, without the company's consent and in violation of natural justice.
The land in question, measuring approximately 6.29 hectares and comprising multiple khasra numbers, was partly purchased by the company in 2005 as an undivided half share. The company claims that co-owners of the remaining share obtained a partition order on February 23, 2021, without its consent, leading to significant financial losses by allotting landlocked and unusable portions.
Additionally, the developer alleges that portions of the land were sold to third parties, who subsequently constructed buildings without the necessary approval from the Jaipur Development Authority (JDA). Despite multiple complaints, no action has been taken against these unauthorized constructions, further exacerbating the situation.
The complainant has requested that all constructions raised without JDA approval on the said khasra numbers be seized and demolished. They have also sought the annulment of the partition order passed by the Sanganer tehsildar without the company's consent. Furthermore, the company has demanded legal action against the concerned officials and appropriate relief to the developer.
This case highlights the ongoing challenges faced by real estate developers in Jaipur, particularly in areas where land disputes and unauthorized constructions are prevalent. The involvement of the Lokayukta is expected to bring much-needed scrutiny and potentially lead to a resolution that upholds the rule of law and protects the rights of legitimate landowners.
Rajdarbar Pink City Developers Pvt Ltd is a well-known real estate firm in Jaipur, known for its commitment to high-quality projects and ethical practices. The company's decision to approach the Lokayukta underscores its determination to address these issues and seek justice through the appropriate legal channels.
The outcome of this case could have broader implications for the real estate sector in Jaipur, influencing how land disputes and unauthorized constructions are handled in the future. It also serves as a reminder of the importance of transparency and accountability in local governance and the need for robust mechanisms to prevent and address such violations.
