ACB arrests Tehsildar, his tout for demanding bribe in Kupwara

 

Anti Corruption Bureau received a complaint against Ashok Sharma, Naib Tehsildar and his associates for demanding a bribe of ₹25 lakh for issuing fard. In his complaint, the complainant alleged that he had applied for issuance of fard in respect of land in the name of his wife measuring 1 kanal 19 marlas under khasra No. 440/299 situated at Mawa Karora, Sungal Morh, Akhnoor before then patwari Halqa Akhnoor Khas namely Ravinder Bhagat. It was alleged that after filing the application, the patwari Ravinder Bhagat and Naib Tehsildar, Ashok Sharma who were at that time posted in the area, approached the complainant through their tout Raman Gupta and asked for a bribe of ₹ 30 lakh for the issuance of the fard.

 

Both of them contacted the complainant and on negotiation the amount was settled at ₹25 lakh. Thereafter, both Patwari and the Naib Tehsildar were transferred out of that place, but the amount of ₹25 lakh was still being demanded by Naib Tehsildar Ashok Sharma from the complainant. It was also alleged that the fard was prepared as the complainant had received the soft copy through whatsapp from one Sh. Chiku Gupta, who was the buyer of his land, as the said soft copy of the fard was sent to Chiku Gupta by the tout Raman Gupta. The original copy of fard, which was stated to be retained by the Naib Tehsildar Ashok Sharma was not being provided to the complainant as the Naib Tehsildar Ashok Sharma was demanding the bribe money of ₹25 lakhs.

 

The Naib Tehsildar demanded to pay the amount of bribe in parts, though he will provide the fard only after getting the full amount of ₹25 lakh. The complainant had further alleged that he has been asked by the Naib Tehsildar to bring at least ₹1.50 lakh. On this the complainant approached ACB for appropriate action against the officials.
