Retired DDA Official Charged in Rohini Land Scam
7 Aug
Summary
- CBI investigates forged documents used to acquire DDA plots
- Retired DDA junior assistant allegedly involved in conspiracy
- Property dealer and six others submitted fraudulent claims
On August 7, 2025, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has booked a retired junior assistant of a sub-registrar's office and seven others in connection with an alleged land scam in Rohini, Delhi. The investigation was prompted by a written complaint received by the CBI, which revealed that during an ongoing probe in another case, several original official documents and notesheets of the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) related to its four plots in Rohini were found at the residence of a property dealer.
The documents included letters issued by the DDA to the sub-registrar of Alipur concerning the verification of relinquishment deeds. It is alleged that, in a conspiracy with the property dealer, the retired junior assistant of the DDA had handed over these original letters in exchange for undue benefits. The relinquishment deeds in question were later found to be forged and not issued by the sub-registrar of Alipur.
The property dealer and six others are accused of submitting the forged documents, posing as the legal heirs of the genuine allottees, in a bid to illegally acquire the DDA plots. The CBI has initiated a thorough investigation into the matter to uncover the full extent of the alleged scam and bring the perpetrators to justice.
