Khanna Administration Suspends Sale of Land Linked to Fake NOCs Amid Investigation
The Khanna administration, led by Sub-Divisional Magistrate Swati Tiwana, has halted the sale and registration of land parcels linked to fake or manually issued No Objection Certificates (NOCs) following an inquiry revealing irregularities in 35 property registries. The investigation report has been forwarded to the local police for further action. Officials have been instructed to update land records to prevent disputed properties from being transferred, and the sub-registrar's office is barred from processing related sale deeds until the inquiry concludes. Authorities have urged buyers to verify documents carefully to avoid fraudulent transactions.
