# PM Modi’s schoolmate seeks CBI probe in land dispute 2026-09-14T07:31:16+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 3 independent outlets Asgarali Vohra, 81, who studied with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at B N School in Vadnagar, met him on September 8 seeking a CBI probe into a decades-old land dispute in Bhayander East. Vohra says he bought 2,810 sq m of land through a registered agreement in 1989, but it was allegedly encroached upon in 2011 by Swayam Builders and Seven Eleven Constructions using forged documents. He also alleges an association between the latter firm and BJP MLA Narendra Mehta. An FIR was registered in 2015, and the case is pending in court. Vohra says he approached the revenue department, municipal authorities and police without resolution. The CID report was filed only in 2026, an 11-year delay, he claims. After the meeting, the municipal administration scheduled a hearing for September 16, directing representatives of the two builders to remain present. ## Indian Opinion Analysis All three outlets report the same core facts, but freepressjournal.in adds specific claims of delay and political pressure that the others omit, such as the CID report being filed 11 years late and counter-cases filed in 2025. Economic Times and Deccan Chronicle frame the story neutrally, focusing on the hearing as the next step. The additional allegations in freepressjournal.in are one-sided, they remain claims. The September 16 hearing will be the first formal test of whether the administrative machinery acts independently. ## Coverage - economictimes.indiatimes.com (neutral report) Led with the meeting and hearing, no added commentary or judgement - deccanchronicle.com (neutral report) Repeats allegations but notes they are unestablished and subject to examination - freepressjournal.in (government critical) Leads with allegations of delay, political pressure and official inaction Tags: Asgarali Vohra, Bhayander East, CBI, Mira Road, Narendra Modi Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/pm-modi-meets-schoolmate-over-mira-road-land-dispute-cbi-sought/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
