Chandigarh has vehemently opposed the grant of concession to the petitioner for the reason that he is the main accused who has played fraud upon the Court by impersonating himself as Rajesh Kumar and thereafter filing false valuation reports of the land by forging the documents and putting stamps of the office of Tehsildar, Derabassi and in fact, the FIR has been lodged at the behest of the Court itself. It is further submitted that the matter is serious in nature and such kind of person cannot granted any leverage. 4. Heard learned counsel for the parties at length. 5. Considering the gravity of offence and the fact that the petitioner had the audacity to play the fraud upon the Court by impersonating himself as Rajesh Kumar and also filing false documents with regard to the valuation of land and imposing stamp of the office of Tehsildar clearly demonstrates his mens rea to commit the crime with impunity. 6. In view of the above, PARUL 2026.07.22 10:47 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document/order
