RTI  Appeal  to Honourable  Chief Justice of India, 
Honourable Chairman  NHRC & Honourable Chief Secretary 
Government of karnataka 

Ref : RTI request no.  JUSTC/R/E/20/00865

    Years ago, I have filed following  PIL before Honourable Supreme Court of India. The case involves  violations  of Fundamental & Human rights of RTI  activists resulting in threats and murders. Hereby , I want information regarding  status of action taken by SCI, NHRC  & GOK with regards to following cases.
1. Status of  action taken against  BEML HOUSING SOCIETY MYSURU & BENGALURU.
2. Status of action taken against  culprits  responsible for murders of RTI activist  Srinath  and  KAS officer Mahantesh.
3. Status of action taken against illegal  housing  societies in karnataka. 
4. Status of action taken  based on our PIL.

Editorial : Refer to CBI 
- BEML Housing Society Murders RTI Activists

What action has been taken against guilty office bearers of BEML Housing Society Mysuru & Benagaluru for their crimes. What action has been taken against BDA , MUDA and other public servants who aided these criminals in their crimes. Are the judges BENEFICIERIES of land crimes , so keeping mum? 
Now criminals have got bail. Criminals have told a story that murder was a result of non payment of loan by RTI Srinath. Where are the documents for payment of loan amount by lender to RTI Srinath. First Police must take the RTI applications made by Srinath to MUDA & other authorities. Based on those documents , they can decipher who are the criminals , officials who stand to get exposed by those information. Those persons must be interrogated. 
Many private land developers , Housing Societies have grossly flouted laws in acquiring lands , allotment of sites , development of layout , civic amenities and private developers have pocketed crores of rupees ill gotten money. MUDA is empowered by law to confiscate those layouts and to send those criminal developers behind bars. To cover up the crimes of those criminal land developers , MUDA is planning to take over those illegal layouts and in due course will use tax payers money for civic amenities , developments in those layouts. Profit is pocketed by private developer whereas tax payer is made to pay for his crimes. 
Before taking those illegal layouts , MUDA must first publicize the list of illegal layouts in & around mysuru along with the name of it's developer. What action taken by MUDA against the land developer for his violations and what action taken against the concerned jurisdiction MUDA engineer / official who failed in his duties. Just see the huge bungalows , properties owned by an Assistant MUDA Engineer , what will be the quantum with others , that too higher MUDA officials ? Secondly MUDA must publicize the list of properties owned by all MUDA officials & Members including the properties in the name of their family members , on a sworn affidavit . Corrupt MUDA officials directly proportional to Illegal Layouts. 
Land Mafia is very strong , years ago when i persisted with my RTI application to MUDA & Mysuru DC i have received threats and Mysuru DC at that time P. Manivannan threatened me. But DC didn't give me full RTI reply nor did he stall the illegal constructions. He just had a FAKE facade of "Demolish Man". 
As office bearers & members of BEML Housing Society are government of india employees and state authorities , police are not properly investigating the crimes , ideally Central Bureau of Investigations ( CBI ) must take over the case under suprme court monitoring. Ensure justice to RTI Srinath. 
RIP Srinath 
Your's , 
Nagaraja Mysuru Raghupathi.

Hebbal , Mysore – 570017 , Karnataka State
.
....Petitioner
Versus 
Honourable Chief Secretary , Government of Karnataka & Others 
....Respondents 
PETITION UNDER ARTICLE 12 to ARTICLE 35 & ARTICLE 51A OF THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA FOR ISSUANCE OF A WRIT IN THE NATURE OF MANDAMUS UNDER ARTICLE 32 & ARTICLE 226 OF THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA. 
To ,
Hon'ble The Chief Justice of India and His Lordship's Companion
Justices of the Supreme Court of India. The Humble petition of the
Petitioner above named.
MOST RESPECTFULLY SHOWETH :
1. Facts of the case:
"Power will go to the hands of rascals, , rogues and freebooters. All Indian leaders will be of low calibre and men of straw. They will have sweet tongues and silly hearts. They will fight among themselves for
power and will be lost in political squabbles . A day would come when even air & water will be taxed." Sir Winston made this statement in the House of Commons just before the independence of India & Pakistan. Sadly , the forewarning of Late Winston Churchill has been proved right by some of our criminal , corrupt public servants. 
2. Eventhough , I have repeatedly appealed to government of karnataka authorities , MUDA , BDA , KIADB , MCC , BBMNP , etc seeking information regarding illegal buildings , land encroachments specifically in mysore & bangalore , they didn’t provide me information. Now one land scam after another are tumbling out. 
3. I have given certain details to authorities including judiciary , SCI regarding land , lake encroachments in mysore when encroachment was at preliminary stage. The authories could have stopped it , but they didn,t. Now , the hinkal lake , hebbal lake , hootagalli lake & BEML Quarters lake have been encroached to maximum extent and criminals have made crores of rupees profit. 
4. Government authorities has not given title deeds to tribals living in forest since centuries , government authorities has not given title deeds to landless people , dalits who are cultivating on government land since decades.
5. Government authorities , police immediately evict , take suo motto action when a poor family , nomadic family just erects a hutment on government land. The same public servants , police don’t take action when a rich crook palatial bungalow , business complex on government land , lake bed. Cann’t they see it. , they can but are hands in glove with looters.
6. even some of the judges don’t take action when appeal for justice is made to them , to evict encroachers , to stop encroachment. It may be quid pro quo arrangement with crooks. See how many judges have benefitted from government discretionary quota allotment of sites , illegal judicial layout , etc.
7. The land encroachers are not poor people below poverty line , they don’t even have ability to build a pucca house. Encroachers are rich crooks , greedy individuals with political connection. So they don’t deserve compassion.
8. Now , government of karnataka is trying to legalise illegalities in buildings , land encroachments , which gives a booster dose to criminals to commit more crimes.
9. As per equitable law if present land encroachments are legalized , in future too government must legalize future land encroachments when ever it takes place.
10. Prior to enactment of AKRAMA SAKRAMA SCHEME of government of karnataka legalizing illegal constructions , land encroachments, MUDA , BDA , MCC , KIADB officials evicted , demolished buildings of encroachers who didn’t cough up bribes. The one who paid bribes , their encroachments , illegal buildings survived and now getting legalized by government.
11. Now , as per equity who ever have been evicted from encroachments , who’s illegal buildings demolished must get compensation from government. If not all encroachers must be evicted & illegal buildings must be demolished. 
12. Now Karnataka High Court has given green signal to “AKRAMA SAKRAMA” scheme of government of Karnataka , therby HC Judges are favoring land mafia , criminals. 
13. It is the duty of the government , Police & Court to give protection to journalists , whistle blowers , RTI Activists who are unearthing truths , crimes. But all of them have failed in their duties to protect RTI Activist Mr.Srinath of Mysuru who was brutally murdered.
14. Recently Karnataka high court gave clearance to Karnataka government’s regularization of illegal buildings ( AKRAMA SAKRAMA ) scheme. 
a. Law is one & same for all. 
b. Government authorities , police razes down , demolishes small temporary hutments built by tribals , dalits without mercy , takes suo motto action. No court comes to their rescue. 
c. Till date bagar hukum lands are not given to dalits , tribals are not given land rights over their huts in forests. Is Cout blind , deaf ? 
d. However when rich crooks build bungalows , commercial complexes illegally , no suo motto action taken by government authorizes , police , why ? Courts go a step further it gives stay orders against demolition of rich crook’s illegal buildings , asks government to modify plan , law itself to save illegal buildings of rich crooks. 
e. Does Karnataka HC has details of exact number of building violations , buildings built on forest lands , lake beds , raja kaluves with respective after affects on neighbouring buildings , road traffic , ecology , etc and contingency plan by authorities to overcome those after affects casewise backed by technical studies. Make it public. 
f. What criminal action initiated against revenue , police & other officials who failed in their duties at the first instance to stop the illegal building construction. 
g. Small houses of poor people who have smaller building violations but who failed to bribe officials were dealt mercilessly. Their houses were razed down . Now , will the HC order the government to compensate them , to rebuild houses for them as the court is now saying they are legal now. 
h. Government & HC has given a cut off date for consideration of regularization of illegal buildings. When a crime before that cut off date becomes legal , why cann’t it be legal after that date ? 
i. What guarantee HC gives no illegal buildings has come up after cut off date and will never come in future ? 
j. If comes what criminal action against the concerned officials ? 
Bottomline : Judges open your eyes , listen , think & then act. 
2. Question(s) of Law:
Is robbing another’s property right , legal ? is robbing land , lake – a public property for private , individual use right ? 
Is it NOT the duty of Police , Court & Government to protect Rights , Lives of Journalists , Whistle Blowers , RTI Activists and their family ? 
Why they failed to protect the life of Mysuru RTI Activist Mr. Srinath ? 
3. Grounds:
Requests for equitable justice , Prosecution of master minds of land grabbing ,frauds and related crimes.
4. Averment: 
Covering up Land Frauds & Land Mafia . Please read details at :

BEML housing society now in Rs. 500-cr. land scam

Office-bearers of the BEML Employees’ Housing Cooperative Society, who were at the centre of a recent controversy over irregular plot allotments, appear to be involved in another Rs. 500-crore land scam.
In what has been a season of land scams, this one stands out for the ingenuity with which the system was once again exploited by the society’s president J. Munnagappa and the former vice-president H.S. Kumar.
They posed as farmers and claimed that they lost 100 acres of land during the formation of the Arkavathy Layout by the Bangalore Development Authority, and received compensatory plots in the layout that are estimated to be worth Rs. 500 crore. The compensatory residential plots allotted to them are situated in the vicinity of the Bengaluru International Airport.
On their part, officials of the BDA failed to scrutinise Mr. Kumar and Mr. Munnagappa’s claims, although they could have done it by checking the records of the land for which the claims for compensation were raised. The BEML officials “invested” only Rs. 20 crore to secure the illegal compensation from the BDA.
How they pulled it off
Documents provided to The Hindu by the former Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) councillor K.N. Chakrapani show the way Mr. Kumar and Mr. Munnagappa staked their claims for compensation.
On February 23, 2004, the BDA issued final notification for 100 acres in Hennur, Gedlahalli, Tannisandra and Byrathi Khane villages.
Soon after the final notification orders were issued, Mr. Munnagappa and Mr. Kumar purchased land from the farmers in violation of Sections 3 and 4 of The Karnataka Land (Restriction on Transfer) Act, 1991, which stipulate that nobody shall sell, mortgage, gift or lease land that has been acquired or notified for acquisition by the government.
Documents of transfer between the original landholders and the two society officials show that the operation was conducted between March 2004 and April 2005, and cost Mr. Kumar and Mr. Munnagappa Rs. 20 crore.
Seven-year hiatus
After lying low for nearly seven years, they raised a claim for compensation before the BDA posing as farmers and land losers. For each acre of the 100 acres that they purchased illegally, the BDA gave them plots adding up to 9,583 sq ft.
One such allotment deed registered on April 17, 2012 states that Mr. Munnagappa is a land loser and is being compensated as per the land-in-exchange-for-land policy. (This policy was instituted to make land losers stakeholders in development.)
The land allotted to the two society officials as compensation by the BDA is valued at Rs. 500 crore, at Rs. 5,000 per sq ft. On the other hand, the real land owners got only between Rs. 10 lakh and Rs. 12 lakh per acre from Mr. Kumar and Mr. Munnagappa.
Rs. 100 as stamp duty
What is more, Mr. Munnagappa and Mr. Kumar benefited from the former Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa’s “pro-farmer” policy, under which they were exempted from playing the full stamp duty for the land given as compensation. The allotment deeds show that they paid only Rs. 100 as stamp duty per plot.
Asked to respond, Mr. Kumar initially said that he was acting on the orders of his superiors at BEML. Mr. Munnagappa refused to react.
BDA Commissioner Pradeep Singh Kharola did not respond to repeated phone calls and text messages seeking an explanation.
Terming the scam “daylight robbery”, Mr. Chakrapani has demanded that the State government order a judicial inquiry into the alleged illegalities in the Arkavathy Layout project.

Whistleblower pays with life

He had tracked irregular land allotments by BEML Coop. Society, among others
Five days after a murderous attack by unknown assailants in the heart of Bangalore, S.P. Mahantesh, 48, an auditor and whistleblower on irregular land allotments in the State, died of his injuries.
Doctors at the private hospital where he was treated said his heart stopped beating at 5.30 a.m. on Sunday.
Mahantesh is survived by his wife, two children and ailing parents.
Known as an honest officer in a department plagued by allegations of corruption and land scams, Mahantesh, a Karnataka Administrative Service officer and Deputy Director of Cooperative Audit, was a crucial source for some of the stories that The Hindu published in recent months on irregularities in housing societies.
Less than a fortnight ago, he facilitated (for The Hindu) the release of a copy of the audit report of the controversial BEML Employees' Cooperative Society, which is accused of making improper land allotments to several influential persons.
Gowda’s assurance
Chief Minister D.V. Sadananda Gowda, who visited the grieving family members, assured them that the culprits would be arrested soon. He did not, however, announce any compensation.
Mahantesh's death comes as a setback to the police who have been struggling for a breakthrough for the want of an eyewitness. “Had it been possible to revive him, he could have given us vital clues,” DCP (Central Division) B.R. Ravikanthe Gowda told reporters.
Two more teams
He said two more special teams had been formed to solve the case, besides the two teams that had been formed earlier. “We are working from multiple angles at the moment. Things are open ended.”
In fact, on the night of May 15 when he was attacked, Mahantesh was returning after an audit-related meeting with the office-bearers of the Sahakarnagar Credit Cooperative Society, his colleagues revealed.
“He was not auditing any high-profile society. The irregularities in these societies were not of such a nature or scale as to motivate somebody to kill him,” Mr. Ravikanthe Gowda said.
Mahantesh's brother-in-law, Nagarudrappa, expressed outrage at some media reports that had quoted anonymous police sources as saying the attack was motivated by personal enmity. “We are convinced that he was attacked for the good work he was doing.”
