The same oversmart man came to survey our land in 2007. He gave us notice that he will survey the land, which is adjacent to our land, but started to survey our land, which was surveyed several times before that and which is having a clean chit in every respect. When I opposed, he talked something rubbish to me and by the help of our friends we driven him out from our land. | |

At last got trapped. behaves very smart and also cunning. When I was taking him for a survey few years ago, he had taken my photo from my camera and his photo incidentally was caught and I have it with me. This must caution all the Surveyors who loot people and give wroneous sketches at times and multiply problems. some introduce new problems if they are not satisfied. For all this menace the Revenue deppartment at Bangalore is responsible. |
