81-Year-Old Seeks PM Modi's Intervention in Decades-Old Mira Road Land Dispute
An 81-year-old Mira Road resident, Asgarali Vohra, met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on September 8 seeking intervention in a decades-old land dispute involving alleged encroachment and forged documents. Vohra purchased land in Navghar, Bhayander East, in 1989, but alleges encroachment by companies linked to BJP MLA Narendra Mehta since 2011. An FIR was filed in 2015, and the case is pending. Following the meeting, municipal authorities scheduled a hearing for September 16, with calls for a CBI probe.
