Anantnag: In response to the illegal demolition of a doctor's house without notice, Municipal Committee Anantnag in South Kashmir issued a show-cause notice to Executive Officer MC Anantnag seeking an explanation for the act.
Despite presenting legal documents of the under-construction second-storey building at SK Colony Azadpora locality of Anantnag which belongs to a doctor by the name Sheikh Mushtaq, the Executive Officer ordered to demolish of the house rejecting all the legal grounds.
The illegal demolition of the building was carried out without informing the doctor who is the owner of the house through any notice. Executive Officer MC Anantnag approached the building when no one was present at the house. Grabbing the perfect opportunity, he demolished the house.
Describing the act as 'sheer hooliganism' and saying that the Executive Officer acted like a 'goon', the doctor referred to them as corrupt officials abusing their positions.
In response to the issue, Dr Mushtag informed Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha and Deputy Commissioner (DC) Anantnag Dr Piyush Singla regarding the matter. He asked them to take action against the officer responsible for the act. In an appeal to the Anti-Corruption Bureau, he asked the agency to evaluate the assets of corrupt officers and employees.
Dr Sheikh Mushtaq, a paediatrician at Maternity and Child Care Hospital Anantnag told news agency Kashmir News Trust, "I have proper documents and permission that I got after fulfilling all the formalities by paying the requisite fee. The process took a year and a half. I am shocked by the way my house has been demolished given the fact I am having proper permission."
"My mother-in-law had passed away and my family was not present in the house but had left for the Mattan area while I was on duty. MC Anantnag neither informed me in writing nor bothered to call me on phone. This is sheer hooliganism. I have permission and still, my 2nd storey of the house was demolished. I really feel for the common men whom these corrupt officers harass day in and day out," he added.
Chairman Municipal Committee Anantnag, Hilal Ahmad told Kashmir Observer "He has issued an order asking EO to explain his position and on what grounds the second storey of the building was demolished when the owner of the residential house is having proper permission."
Dr Sheikh Mushtaq shared his incident on social media saying "ULB Department is above the law of the land. My house under construction, at S.K.Colony, is at the stage of the second storey, with proper permission, that was given after completion of all formalities after one and a half years and paying the requisite fee. My mother-in-law passed away last week and obviously, the whole family is at Mattan Chowk. My house at S.K.Colony stands locked."
"Today a party of MCA goons, under the supervision of E.O. came and without informing me on phone, or informing by any means have demolished the second storey, as if a film shooting was going on. This is the way they treat law-abiding people. This amounts to theft by the Executive Officer along with his team."
