The Story in Brief
Kherwadi police have registered an FIR after the original MHADA Konkan Board file for Plot 67 at Panchpakhadi in Thane went missing from records in Bandra East. The complaint was filed by officer Shyam More on July 21, following a May 26 order by the Maharashtra Information Commission. The file disappeared sometime between 1990 and 2023. Its absence came to light after RTI applicant Jayraja Bolar Putran sought documents in March 2023. A scanned copy of the adjoining Plot 68 was found, but Plot 67's original remains untraceable.
The FIR names an unidentified person. The police are investigating when and how the records were removed. The Commission had directed a thorough search and an FIR if the file was not found, leading to the current case.
The Indian Opinion
A missing government file on a prime Thane plot naturally invites suspicion of foul play, but the lapse spans three decades and several officers. Without evidence of tampering, blaming any party is premature. The real test is what the police investigation uncovers: who accessed the file between 1990 and 2023, and whether any land transactions occurred in that period.
