Narendra Mehta-Linked Trust Surrenders Permit After Land Dispute Complaint
A land ownership disagreement arose in Bhayandar involving a company linked to former BJP MLA Narendra Mehta.
Asgar Ali Vhora complained that the land had been illegally occupied.
He followed up with officials and later met Prime Minister Narendra Modi about the matter.
The Revenue Department removed the company’s name from the land record.
However, the municipal building permission had not yet been cancelled.
Seven Eleven then gave up its building permission and asked for its fees back.
The company said it had bought the land properly and had received approval.
It also asked police to withdraw a trespassing case, saying the sides had reached a settlement.
Seven Eleven Constructions surrendered its building construction permission to the Mira-Bhayandar Municipal Corporation amid a land dispute.
Complainant Asgar Ali Vhora alleged illegal encroachment by Soham Developers and Seven Eleven on Survey No. 240 in Indralok, Bhayandar.
The Revenue Department had removed the company’s name from the 7/12 land extract, but the construction permit remained active.
Seven Eleven said it legally purchased the land in 2019 and obtained building approval on April 17, while requesting a refund of its fees.
The company also asked police to withdraw an FIR against Vhora and Ajju alias Ajay Doka, citing a mutual settlement.
