The petitioner claims to be the owner of L.R. Plot No.1033, J.L. No.68 within Mouza-Guaberia under Police Station-Karimpur in the District of Nadia.

The petitioner claims to have purchased the aforesaid plot of land by virtue of the Registered Deed of Conveyance from one Sri Niranjan Mondal.

The petitioner states that the men and agents of the respondent authorities were conducting measurement of plot of land and some persons are engaged for making construction.

The learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the respondent authorities are trying to utilize the property of the petitioner without initiating any appropriate proceedings for requisition and/or acquisition. The petitioner has submitted a representation dated

September 20, 2025 before various authorities including the Land Acquisition Collector, Nadia being the respondent No.2.
