In Dahod, Gujarat, 219 plots were approved for bogus bean cultivation. A scam of Rs. 500 crores has taken place. 1500 bighas of land worth Rs. 4 thousand crores was sold without cultivation. Bhupendra Patel government of Gujarat is protecting officials and 6 leaders. Along with bogus bean cultivation in the land, orders of Section 73AA were also made. Officials considered it valid. The provincial officer has declared more than 175 survey numbers as suspicious. But 219 plots of such land were made without cultivation and a scam was committed.
It is believed that at least 50 officers or employees are involved in fake receipts of banks, fake coins of collector office. Panchmahal district Godhra city Agriculture Panch Mamlatdar MM Bhabhor and Panchmahal district Godhra Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Provincial Officer N.B. Rajput are responsible in this scam.
If strict action is taken against all of them, then this will be the first case not only in the state but in the country, in which action has been taken against a large number of 50 officials simultaneously in a land scam.
4 thousand residential houses, malls, petrol pumps have been built on this land. 15 thousand people are directly affected. The government is collecting an average of Rs 10000 from farmers by making property cards on the basis of fake orders of their agricultural land. Still, there has been a loss of Rs 2 crore premium. The government has suffered a loss of Rs 250 crore. But Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, even though he himself handles the Revenue Department, did not take any action. He is saving someone.
A complaint is being lodged with the police against those who bought the land. But the government has to pay Rs 10000 for making the lands barren in an illegal manner. Two dozen officials including Collector, SDM, Deputy Collector, Mamlatdar who caused a loss of 250 crores are being saved from Gandhinagar without filing a complaint.
A complaint should be filed against these officials for cheating the government by causing financial loss, yet the officials are being saved to save BJP leaders. Currently the collector is Yogesh Nirgude.

This scam took place between 13-7-2009 to 28-12-2018.
24 villages
More than 179 survey numbers in 24 villages around Dahod town were declared non-cultivated on the basis of fake NA orders.
The land survey numbers of Dahod, Raliati, Nagarala, Bhambhori, Delsar, Chapri, Garbada, Katwada, Tanda, Jhalod, Liler, Gamala, Himala, Ukardi, Nasirpur, Chandwana, Rampura, Sakarda, Mandavv, Borwani and Kharod villages are included.
The highest number has come up in the survey from Dahod town. However, in this entire investigation, the names of officers and employees from collector level to clerk level are likely to come out.
Order
The provincial officer Dahod had written a letter to the Deputy Registrar of Dahod asking him not to document all the survey numbers of fake order of non-cultivation.
Vigilance team
The vigilance team of IRC from Gandhinagar inspected various offices along with investigation by visiting the survey numbers.
The heads of various 7 offices were ordered to file a complaint against the owners of 179 plots. Complaints have come about 10 hectares of land. Many more hectares of land may come.
The prosecution officer himself turned out to be the accused
Naib Chitnish, in-charge of the revenue branch of Dahod District Panchayat, complained about the land scam located on Jesawada Road in Nagarala near Dahod city. On June 15, 2024, the prosecutor in charge on behalf of the District Panchayat was Chitnish Vijay Damor. His involvement came to the fore in the police investigation. He was arrested. He confessed this during interrogation. In which Vijay Damor was involved in sealing government chaks under fake orders. Thus the complainant himself was the accused. He prepared fake orders. Now he is being held guilty.
He was declared the mastermind.
Earlier, the police had arrested two builders Shaishav Parikh and Zakaria Taylor.
Government website
Suresh Chandra Seth, who lives in Dahod, had bought agricultural land and had sent it to the government.
Seth’s lawyer said that the notice given by Mamlatdar is illegal and unconstitutional. The government itself admitted that this notice is false. Such a notice cannot be given. As a general rule, no one other than a farmer can buy agricultural land.
The website of the government’s revenue department shows the status of the land as non-agricultural. He sells the land by showing his land as non-agricultural on the government website. Such a case came to light in Dahod itself. Only that land was bought which was not shown as agricultural on the government website. When an application was filed against him in this case, the court also accepted the applicant’s application.
How did such a deal of land happen on the government website? Under whose supervision is this scam going on?
Government’s own scam
A notice has been sent by Mamlatdar against Sureshchandra Seth, who lives in Dahod, for buying cultivable land despite not being a farmer. Lawyer Utkarsh Dave said that the notice issued by Mamlatdar is illegal and unconstitutional. The government itself admitted today that this notice is wrong and such a notice cannot be given. This proves that a big scam is going on in the Revenue Department.
When the court ordered the government to investigate the matter further, steps were taken.
Orders of Revenue Minister
The then Revenue Minister Rajendra Trivedi was sent to Gandhinagar Revenue Department. Panchmahal District Collector has given a report of departmental investigation and criminal action.
Rajendra Trivedi said that if I get any complaint against those officers regarding fake construction of non-farmers, then I will take immediate departmental action. They will be suspended.
In this regard, he gave orders to the prosecutors of the Gujarat government. He asked to take action under the Land Grabbing Act.
Although fake farmers can be found in large numbers in Panchmahal district, proper investigation is not done. It is alleged that the District Collector’s Office has become an office of goons.
The scandal was suppressed
How the government suppressed this scam is being discussed all over Gujarat. There are many such circumstances and evidence that the BJP government itself is helping in scams.
Serious allegations made in 2022. When did the government get these details?
Panchmahal Godhra City Mamlatdar Krishipanch M. M. Bhabhor and Observation Officer N.B. Rajput Prant Goghra made farmers fake by taking huge bribes from non-farmers.
Village Sample No. 6 Hakka Patra was tampered with the name of A.I. Madari Anchal Officer who tampered with the revenue records at that time.
Fake farmers have been created by not submitting evidence like death certificate, passport etc. before making farmers.
Farooq Bhana’s father, Mohammad Ibrahim Ismail Bhana etc., family name, date of death in different generations, details not available.
Fake farmers are made despite being non-farmers. Rights have been changed to show death. Bogus inheritance has been given. A.I. Madari Circle Officer is responsible for this. Hijri has made wrong succession in the property. Government property has also been sold by hiding it.
A.I. Madari which is a group of dismissed and retired officers working in the Revenue Department.
The Gujarat Vigilance Commission has not paid enough attention to this matter because fake farmers are also pressurized by the Revenue Inspection Commissioners. Farmers are made fake by suppressing irregularities. Immediate criminal action should have been taken against the person who made the death certificate, but it was not taken.
Despite repeated informing the BJP government, no action was taken.
The reply evidence of Mamlatdar Agriculture Panch MM Bhabhor of Dahod city and the sale by non-agriculturists in the present case have not been shown in its decision.
Fake farmers were created by on-duty Gogra Sub Divisional Magistrate and Deputy Collector NB Rajput Prant Gogra. Who has taken huge bribe. Unilateral order has been made by the officials without verification of non-farmers. People complained about this scam to Panchmahal Collector but no action was taken. This chapter has been suppressed by taking huge bribe. Helped anti-social elements.
MM Bhabhor, Agriculture Panch Mamlatdar of Gogra, Panchmahal District and Gogra Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Prant Officer of Panchmahal District NB Rajput are responsible in this scam.
Vigilance Commissioner Sangeeta of Gujarat Government has asked for departmental inquiry to take action against the corrupt.
Involvement of Mamlatdar
Wrong letter was written in the correspondence regarding verification of land from Mamlatdar office. Vijay Damor handled the coins and correspondence of government office in preparing the entire fake order. Police of Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan investigated.
Scam of 50 employees of City Survey Office
73/AA lands like Dala Tarawadi Wadi were grabbed by land mafias in connivance with corrupt government officials. From 2011 to 2022, the land of Dahod district was NA on the basis of fake order. Then in this case, 50 employees from the city survey superintendent to the peon are under suspicion. However, no action has been taken against them.
An attempt is being made to suppress the scandal.
The SDM withdrew the notice. The chain of chronology says a lot.
The SDM was transferred. Now this document has been banned.
The farmhouse has been seized
It was done
An officer took Rs 50 lakh from the builder. Farm house was confiscated. Gandhinagar Revenue Secretary took action.
Preparation of 41 FIRs
219 FIRs are likely to be registered.
Preparation to register 41 new FIRs. But the collector did not make any complaint against the officers. The collector has written that a mistake has been made.
Gundaraj
Sources say that an MLA of Gujarat is involved in this scam. Therefore 50 officers are being saved.
Replace
The Revenue Department of the Gujarat government had transferred the Dahod provincial officer and Dahod Taluka Mamlatdar from Gandhinagar. Dahod province officer Rajput N.B. was transferred to Porbandar and Mamlatdar in Dahod to Amreli. Dahod Deputy District Development Officer Milind Kumar Daveni was given the powers of Dahod provincial officer as the new provincial officer. Then Mamlatdar of Dahod, Panchmahal district, Mamlatdar of Halol, Pradeep Singh B. Gohil was given the authority of Dahod Mamlatdar. The transfer took place but no criminal action was taken.
Collector’s order
The collector said that action will be taken against those who are responsible in the case of fake orders.
Collector Yogesh Nirgude ordered an investigation into the land that was NA after 2015. A team of 50 employees examined 934 survey numbers out of 9,500 property cards and initially found 175 fake numbers.
The letter read, ‘On verification of change notes of non-cultivation, purpose and other orders of various offices in the E-Dhara Center of Dahod Mamlatdar Office and Taluka Panchayat Office, City Survey Office, Taluka Development Officer of District Panchayat Office, Provincial Officer of Dahod Office and Collector Office, the orders have been found suspicious.
It has been found that Mamlatdar Office, Taluka Panchayat Office and City Survey Office have given wrong orders with the names of the concerned offices and considering it to be correct, have recorded notes while making property cards.
Prima facie it seems that some crime is being committed. Chitnish was given the responsibility of filing a complaint regarding the orders of the Collector’s Office to the Collector.
In the letter, information has been given to the departments including Additional Secretary Home, Additional Chief Secretary Revenue Department, Land Reforms Commissioner, Additional Collector Monitoring of Revenue Inspection Commissioner Office.

If something wrong has happened in your own office, what steps have you taken against your officials? How can you take action against a buyer whose land is non-cultivable on the government revenue department portal? Put up a wrong government website and take action against people?
FIR lodged against a government official? This is not a mistake, it is a big scam. The government was ordered to give an explanation, asked to produce records. Otherwise, your officials will lose their jobs.

Therefore, instead of plotting on the adjacent 73 AA controlled land, buildings have been erected on it. However, this matter has been challenged in the court by the original owner, who has issued documents worth more than 6 crores to more than 21 people.
In Sanga area of Raliati village, the scam gang and government officials inserted a fake copy of the property card with survey number 376/1/1 as well as changes in the data in the land measurement in the CT survey. As the size of the land increased, the land was registered in the name of Haroon Patel on government papers in addition to the property sold by him earlier.
