Major land scam in Mulund: A conspiracy to grab Hanuman Temple land?
Special Correspondent, Mumbai
A property dispute has become a major talking point in the Mumbai suburb of Mulund. The case concerns Nityanand Apartment, located on Dr. Rajendra Prasad Road in Mulund West, where a dispute over land ownership has taken a serious turn. This entire episode involves a web of faith, heritage, and legal maneuvering that has left ordinary investors deeply concerned.
Playing with Faith and Heritage
At the center of the dispute is an ancient Dakshin-mukhi (south-facing) Swayambhu (self-manifested) Hanuman temple and some adjacent garages. The landowner, Rajendra Shantilal Sanghvi, states that this property was purchased by his grandfather decades ago. Mr. Sanghvi alleges that the society and builders have conspired to grab the land where this temple and the garages are located. He asserts that the temple and garage portion is entirely distinct and that he holds the ownership rights, but it has been misrepresented in the name of development.
Question Marks over the Role of Administration
The most shocking aspect is that in the documents submitted to the BMC and the building plans, a gate has been shown on this disputed land. Mr. Sanghvi claims that neither was he consulted nor was he given any notice. When he personally visited the Municipal Corporation to retrieve information, he discovered that the plan was being pushed forward while completely ignoring his rights. As a senior journalist, when we investigated this matter in depth, it became clear that this has been done either by setting rules aside or by taking advantage of the negligence of administrative officials.
Warning for Investors
This matter is not just about one family's property; it is a major warning for ordinary people who are looking for their dream homes in areas like Mulund. Rajendra Sanghvi says he even offered to show all legal documents to the builder, Maheshbhai Patel, and resolve the issue mutually, but the builder did not respond. Currently, the matter is pending in the City Civil Court.
Waiting for Accountability
When we attempted to contact the builder, Maheshbhai Patel, and the society representative, Deepak, to get their side of the story, there was no response from one side, while the other side brushed off the conversation citing being busy. Even after several hours, no clarification has been provided by them.
Conclusion
In the hope of justice, Rajendra Sanghvi has made his faith in the temple and his legal battle his weapons. He has made it clear that he will not back down until he receives his rights. But the question remains: who will guarantee the safety of the common man in this race for development?
If you are planning to invest in property in this area of Mulund, be careful! Understand the legal technicalities before signing any agreement, because your hard-earned money could fall victim to a wrong decision.
We demand that the administration conduct an impartial investigation into this entire matter and take strict action against the culprits.
