(7) In 1972, a Chakbandi survey was carried out by state Govt , wherin they provided a new plot nos to the old plots or part of plot, as below , as per form 17 record . (All form 17 record is available with me which I obtained from record room )
(a) Old plot no: 291/2 & 292/2 correspond to new plot no: 773 of 21 decimal in the name of Mr Nitin , which was later rectified by Mr Binay kumar in his own name through Chakbandi officer , as he had purchased this land in 1974, area 16 decimal ( Mentioned in sl no:6)

(d) Old plot no: 274 part correspond to new plot no: 778 of 02 decimal in the name of Binay kumar
(e) Old plot no: 274 part correspond to new plot no: 779 of 08 decimal in the name of Binay kumar
(f) Old plot no: 274 part correspond to new plot no: 780 of 10 decimal in the name of Binay kumar
(Note: -
1) Chakbandi survey map is not available in Circle office of this area.
2)The total land in chakbandi survey is coming to be 56 decimal in the name of Binay kumar, where as total land purchased by Binay so far is 28 (16+12) decimal only . And the total land in the name of Mr Nitin kumar and his wife is = 16+12+16= 44 decimal.
3)The land of rekha devi is not sold as I have searched this record in record room from 1950 to 1980.
In between 2001 to 2010, the chakbandi survey land of 56 decimal is sold by Mr Pradeep (Son of Binay kumar) to one tenant Raju residing in plot no. 291/2 & 292/2 as a tenant .(other three tenant is also residing in plot no: 291/2 & 292/2) . All these tenant purchased the land of 12 decimal through four sale deed in plot No: 291/2 & 292/2 , where in they have mentioned their plot no as 774 in stead of 773 .
Also Mr Pradeep solds 36 decimal of land to Mr Raju & his brother in two more sale deed. One sale deed is sold through plot no: 773 , area =13 decimal , wherein it has been mentioned that eastern boundary is of my grand father name (Mr Mohan) (Which is wrong in my opinion as this land is falling in plot no: 291/2 & 292/2, in which eastern boundary is Mr naveen ( My grand grnad father) and in another sale deed Mr pradeep sold his land to raju brothers of 23 decimal, where in they have mentioned , northen boundary as railway hata and westyern boundary as Ramnath , eastern boundary as Nij .
One day , one of my relatives gives the registered deed of plot no: 273 ( purchased by grand father Mr Mohan ,registered deed No: 17818 dt: 03.08.1965) to Raju.
Suddenly we receive a notice from circle officer for measurement of land . The land is measured by Amin . Since chakbandi survey map is not available , Amin used old map and form 17 (Form 17 tells how the plot is carved from old plots and there is no mention of boundary in Form 17 ) for measurement of land .
The Circle officer gives a report on the basis of Amin measurement and document submitted by us and Raju ( We submitted our registered deed of 273 along with sale deed of plot no: 274 & 286 where in eastern boundary is shown to be of my grand father) . Mr Nitin kumar . He declares that this land is not ours . It is the land of Mr Raju . He also mentions that we have encroached 18 decimal of land by constructing a pakka house in 7 decimal and 11 decimal land has been encroached by boundary . (In this land we along with family is living in pakka housed along with boundary of 11 decimal since land procurement date ).
He also declares that this land of 18 decimal belongs to Raju and we are in unauthorized encroachment ( 11 decimal in 773 and 7 decimal in plot no: 776,778 and 779) . He also mentions that our land 273 is far apart as per old map .
Here it is essential to note that Amin has mention in his report to circle officer that , new chakbandi survey map is not available for new plots so Forms 17 & old map has been used for measurement of land .
Also he mentined in his report that Old plot no: 291/2 & 292/2,274 & 286 correspond to new plot no: 773 of 21 decimal, though fact is that Chakbandi plot no: 773 is made from old plot no 291/2 & 292/2 only as per form 17 record. Here Amin is at mistaken as he changes the Form 17 record . He added the plot no: 274 & 286 in from 17 of plot no: 773 to measure the land of Raju plot no: 773 in our side . Had he not added , then this new chakbandi plot no: 773 would fall in plot no: 291/2 & 292/2 .There is no question of falling plot no 773 in our plot no: 273 . Here Amin has done fraud in my view as he has changed the Form 17 i.e Govt record . Amin also mentioned in his report about all new plot made from old plot as explained from (b) to (f) above. In sl No: a he has changed the record as mentioned in above para.
After the order of circle officer we came to know by our lawyer that our plot no: 273 is wrong plot but since Boundary will prevail over plot no, our lawyer advices for rectification of deed and accordingly case was filed for suit for declaration .
To get all the record or form 17 of new Chabandi plot no 773 ,774,776,778,779 & 780 (how these plot correspond to old plots) mentioned in the CO report , I sent a RTI to circle office under RTI-2005 , but circle officer has not provided me this information rather he provides incomplete information , which is not fulfilling my requirement.
Then I went for appeal to additional collector , he called me & CO office in June last week , but I could not attend his office due to urgent job at my duty place. Then in his reply Additional collector send the same answer/ reply as Circle office representative submitted the same record to Additional collector office in the last week of June .
In july I visited Additional collector offices , he assured me to made it available in 10 days but it is verbal assurance. I also met to circle officer he told me that these records are not available but I have spoken him to made it available . He was telling that I will write that it is not available , however after discussion he assured that he will try to find out the records . ( here circle officer is new one , earlier one is transferred to other places)
In view of above my question is as beow:
a) Since form -17 record has been changed by Amin , due to thart Mr raju is claiming land of 13 decimal in plot no: 273 and the same has been veited by Circle officer .Why action can not be taken or case may be filed directly against Amin (Amin is on contractual basis to circle office) and circle office for tampering in form -17 (Govt record) . As earlier it has been adviced by your forum that circle officers has done it on his official capacity so case can not be files. But here it is a deliberate mistake .
Please advice along with alternate option .
b) I am planning to go for second appeal to State information commissioner . Please advice on this issue, if any thing to be mentioned specifically .
c) Also please advice further course of action , if I don’t get complete information or documents from CO offcie and additional collector office .
