in his statement  and submitted he submitted a layout named  as “Ananta Basudev Nagar” made on most potential agriculture lands meant for real estate business(Plotting propose) over a land area of more than Ac 8.00 at Konisi Mouza under Konisi Tahasil  and sought the map itself is  self explanatory too.

That, said layout made over Plot No categorical mention in his representation that,1241,1246,1139,1248,1250,1251,1245,1140,1240,1153,1239,1247,1155,1156,1231,1233,1237,1141,1232,1234,1235,1242,1151 & 1154 consisting around eight acres of agriculture land violating the OLR Sec 8A without conversation to Gharabari Kissam before changing the characteristics’ of land for selling of plots. That, the changing of characteristics’, construction of roads and segregation of plot sizes has made over the said lands and near about 222 plots demarked (15 feets × 60 feets) sizes have developed for sale.

As the development has made since one year back so willingness, knowledge and involvement of Tahasildar Konisi and his companion RI Konisi circle cannot be over ruled.

As the patch of land/layout with in the distance of 0.5 kilometeres from NH-59, so the govt exchequer has loosed the revenue to the tune of Rs 24 Lakhs towards premium amount for conversation to Gharabadi Kissam @ Rs.3.00 Lakhs per acre of land. Besides that, no objection has obtained from surrounding land owners for any obstacles of irrigation, movement of men, animal and agriculture implementation.

While going through Bhulekh Odisha it is found that no plot/s nos. mentioned above has boundaries like Danda but Sub Registrar Konisi created himself own as “Danda” on each plot’s(as per layout) registration by misusing his influenced power for his pecuniary benefit.
