Rohtak, March 13
The Mokhra Khas village sarpanch has been booked for allegedly forging documents and contesting for the post of sarpanch, reserved for Schedule Castes, in 2016.
Her husband, brother-in-law, then tehsildar/naib tehsildar of Meham, and the management of a private school in MP have also been booked on the orders of a local court.
The case has been registered under Sections 406, 420, 467, 468, 471, 120-B, 506 and 34 of the IPC on the basis of a complaint lodged by two residents of the village.
The complainants had moved an application before the court, submitting that Somvir, a general category resident of Mokhra village, had married Chanda of MP.
“Chanda’s in-laws got her name changed to Lakshmi Devi. They had claimed she belonged to the SC community and had studied up to Class VIII. To back their claims, they had made forged documents. On the basis of these documents, Chanda had contested the sarpanch elections in 2016,” the complaint stated.
“Sarpanch’s husband Somvir and his brother Anil made the forged school education and caste certificates in connivance with the management of a school in Tikamgarh district in Madhya Pradesh and then tehsildar/naib tehsildar of Meham,” one of the complainants alleged. — TNS
