Nagpur: A housing society President and Secretary have been booked for allegedly duping a buyer of nearly Rs 10 lakh by selling him a non-existent plot in Gittikhadan, exposing a major land fraud involving forged layout documents.
The accused, identified as Chandrakant Biswas, President of Neeta Co-operative Housing Society, and Sabita Biswas, the society’s Secretary, allegedly misused their positions to sell a plot that did not exist in the approved layout of the Nagpur Improvement Trust (NIT).

According to Gittikhadan police, the complainant, Pradeep Navghare (49), a resident of Wadi and an officer with the Ordnance Factory, entered into an agreement with the accused in 2017 to purchase Plot No. 50-A at Dabha. He allegedly paid a total consideration of Rs 9,95,029 for the property.
Police said the sale deed was executed in 2018, but the document reportedly mentioned the property’s value as only Rs 2 lakh, substantially lower than the actual amount allegedly paid by the buyer.
The alleged fraud came to light in 2024, when Navghare began preparations for construction on the plot by dumping building material at the site. A woman subsequently claimed ownership of the land and lodged a complaint with the police, triggering an investigation.
During the inquiry, officials from the Nagpur Improvement Trust examined the approved layout and made a startling discovery. The investigation revealed that Plot No. 50-A did not exist in the NIT-approved layout of the housing society.
Police suspect the accused used a fabricated layout plan to execute the sale deed and allegedly cheated the complainant by selling a fictitious plot.
Based on Navghare’s complaint, Gittikhadan police have registered a case against Chandrakant and Sabita Biswas under relevant provisions pertaining to cheating and are carrying out further investigations.
