A Dalit woman in Shahpur Dev village, Shahabad tehsil of Rampur, has alleged illegal occupation and demolition of a construction on her purchased land.
The woman says that some villagers occupied her land and, when she protested, used casteist slurs and threatened to kill her.
The victim has filed a complaint with the authorities and demanded strict action against the accused.
Demand for action against the accused
Complainant Kranti, a resident of Shahpur Dev, stated that she purchased 0.0162 hectares of land in plot number 408 from Sonia of the village on May 11, 2026. After the sale deed, the seller handed over possession of the land to her.
Kranti constructed the foundation and boundary wall on her purchased land. After this, she went to Chandigarh (Punjab) to work as a laborer.
Some time later, she received information that some villagers had broken the foundation and boundary of her land and taken possession of it.
The accused behaved rudely
When Kranti returned home and questioned these people, they claimed the land as theirs and admitted to the occupation. It is alleged that when she protested, the accused behaved rudely with her, used casteist slurs, and threatened to kill her.
Family terrified after the incident
The victim stated that her family has been terrified since this incident. They have demanded the administration free the land from illegal occupation and take strict legal action against the accused.
In this regard, Sub-District Magistrate Ashutosh Kumar stated that upon receiving the complaint, the matter will be investigated and necessary action will be taken.
