Construction of privately owned multi-storey buildings on govt land in Jhenaigati alleged

Sherpur Correspondent

On August 5 last year, an allegation was made that a privately owned multi-storey building was being constructed on government land in Jhenaigati, Sherpur. This allegation was made by local residents.

It is learned that an influential person from the Upazila Sadar is constructing this multi-storey building. Local residents said that the person had been living for a long time by occupying government land on the bridge of the Upazila Sadar and building houses. Not only that, he had also occupied government land worth about one crore taka in front of the house and built a market and ran a rental business. Later, in 2021, the Upazila administration conducted a mobile court and demolished two houses in the market in front of the house.

The remaining houses were closed and signboards were hung as government property. But after the political situation changed on August 5 last year, the influential person removed the government signboards put up in the market and occupied the houses. The vacated houses have not been recovered officially. In this regard, they have started construction of multi-storey buildings on government land worth about one crore taka by demolishing the nearby houses. Although the upazila administration has asked them to stop the construction work, they have continued the construction work ignoring the administration's instructions.

Confirming the truth of the incident, UNO Ashraful Alam Russell said that they have been asked to stop the construction work. Since they are still working after this, he said that they will personally inspect the site and take legal action. It is worth noting that illegal house construction has been going on on government land for several days in the Upazila Sadar Bazar and other areas.

Although the administration has stopped the construction work, the house construction work is not stopping through various means.
