Visakhapatnam: Greater Visakha City Committee of Communist Party of India (Marxist) submitted representations to the Principal Secretary (Revenue), Chief Commissioner of Land Administration (CCLA) and Collector on Monday demanding stringent action against those responsible for tampering of 1B revenue records with regard to the government lands located in Madhuravada and Kommadi villages.

Highlights:

  • Total value of the tampered land value is nearly Rs 200 crore, says CPI (M).
  • Left leader wonders whether government lands are protected or not.

Party city secretary B Ganga Rao said it was identified recently that the details of 20 acres of government land in the Survey No.37 were changed in favour of private parties and the land value in those two areas is now about Rs 10 crore per acre. He said that the total value of the tampered land value is nearly Rs 200 crore.

As higher authorities had failed to take action against similar irregularities which surfaced earlier at Simhachalam, Rushikonda, Yendada, Aganampudi and Gajuwaka areas, both revenue officials and public representatives were making omissions and commissions in the land records, he alleged.

Further elaborating on the tampering of land records, Ganga Rao informed that under Madhuravada Revenue village limits, land records pertaining to 3.96 acres in the Survey Nos. 150/2, 3, 85/5, 6 and 7, 85/11, 87/1 to 13, 88/5, 6, 102/ 1 to 7 were changed in the 1B register by affixing photographs of private parties. Similarly, the revenue officials have identified that the records belong to four acres in S No. 371/1, 1.80 acres in S No.40/30P, 4.22 acres in S No.110, 4.08 acres in S No. 363/2 and 1.22 acres in S No. 263/2 and the land records of Kommadi area under S No 118/3 and 28/2 were also tampered.


The CPM leader felt that it was not a small issue to include the names of private parties along with photographs in the government lands pertaining to Survey No. 37 and questioned where the protection for government lands is when the revenue officials who supposed to protect the lands were indulging in gross irregularities.
