After the assassination of the country's Prime Minister Mrs. Indira Gandhi in 1984, millions of Punjabis and Sikhs were subjected to genocide and looting and burning of property in India as part of a conspiracy based on their religion. Due to this massacre and displacement, lakhs of victims took refuge in Punjab and most of the people settled inside Punjab. In this, the Punjabis suffered a lot of lives and financial loss of billions of rupees at that time.

During the previous governments, instead of providing proper assistance to the displaced families who were suffering such loss of life and money, in the name of their resettlement, government officers and officials have scammed government residential, commercial and industrial properties throughout Punjab. Thousands of so-called riot victims, government properties were usurped by making fake certificates and even now thousands of government properties worth billions of rupees by government officers, employees, and so-called leaders of riot victims, politicians, police officers etc. Properties be ing Illegally sold and/or leased out.

A list of 30 houses was also released by Satnam Daun, in which the names of the employees of Gamada Pudda are listed along with the house numbers. Those expensive houses are also occupied by the officers for further sale and it is also known that rent is collected from those houses. It was never deposited in the government treasury. In the list issued by GAMADA, there are details of 173 properties in Kiratpur Sahib, Anandpur Sahib, Ropar and Rajpure which are shown as vacant.

The Punjab government's exchequer is losing billions of rupees. 
The Punjab Against Corruption Team met some Sikh riot victims during the election campaign 2022 against the corrupt system in Mohali, who have not been given a residence even after suffering huge financial loss and loss of life, and their part of the house has been illegally occupied by many corrupt people, Government officers and corrupt police officers. Later, during investigation, the team got information from sources that according to a list of GMADA dated 23 May 2018, 581 residential properties were illegally occupied by officers, leaders and bankers.

But due to the pressure of political bigwigs and the mafia with the intention of suppressing the scam, that list never came out. Then to expose all this scam information should be given on 12th May 2022 from Puda and Gmada about vacant and occupied government properties in all the city under RTI. But Gmada continued to suppress the scam by sending false and misleading letters to the informant till March 10, 2023, to protect the exposure of Gmada, Puda senior officials, political leaders and other officials who were earning from these properties.

It is worth mentioning that the Gamada officials have sent a false letter to Satnam Daun and they have already sent the information due to which their appeal is being closed, gave letter number 69155 dated 24 February 2022 which was never posted. In that letter, the authorities refused to give information and the authorities did not even have a record of sending this letter.

Because according to the team of the organization, there was a list of hundreds of houses that were vacant in the records but actually buried, which were occupied by the mafia and sold, rented out or given to their people by government officials and moneylenders.

When the officials were told about this and warned to file complaints against the officials to the Chief Minister and Vigilance Bureau etc., the officials of Gamada and Pudda hastily put a 6-page list on the website. A total of 10333 properties in this list posted on Gmada site including very valuable SCOs, SCFs, booths, plots, flats, hospitals and many other types of properties are shown vacant.

It is worth mentioning that according to the officials of GMADA, 930 crore rupees have been earned in the last 15 days by auctioning 25 properties. Whereas in the old sectors of Mohali, not a single such property is vacant and they are encroached upon by rasukhdars, those properties are being sold illegally or their rents are being collected illegally.

The list hastily released by Gmada is also incomplete as no booth is shown vacant in Mohali Phase I whereas Booth No. 46 of Phase I has been sealed by Gmada for many years under court orders which is the property of Gmada. 581 vacant properties of 2018 and many other properties are not in the wrong list hastily released by GAMADA.

It may be mentioned here that Gamada's own employees have also been demanding for housing for many years. While the officers committed scams, they did not give houses to most of their employees.

A list of 30 houses was also released by Satnam Daun, in which the names of the employees of Gamada Pudda are listed along with the house numbers. Those expensive houses are also occupied by the officers for further sale and it is also known that rent is collected from those houses. It was never deposited in the government treasury. In the list issued by GAMADA, there are details of 173 properties in Kiratpur Sahib, Anandpur Sahib, Ropar and Rajpure which are shown as vacant.

Apart from these 10 thousand properties in Mohali of the Punjab government, there are thousands of other similar properties in Ludhiana, Patiala, Bathinda etc. which are in the possession of officials, leaders, mafia and the alleged leaders of the Sikh riot victims. He said that if this scam is properly investigated, then the scam of many riot victims of Ludhiana and Mohali who have become leaders who are getting political patronage during the old governments and dozens of houses illegally sold by them will be exposed.

Satnam Daun has sent complaints to Chief Minister and Chief Secretary etc. The representatives of Punjab Against Corruption Organization, the Sikh riot victims and the present representatives demanded from the Bhagwant Mann government to investigate all such government residential and commercial properties in the cities of Punjab which are vacant but occupied in the government records.

They demanded that the properties illegally occupied by the moneylenders should be vacated and given to the real Sikh riot victims, government employees, economically weak and unemployed etc. at a cheap rate or sold at the market rate to the government exchequer.

He also demanded that the people who have used such properties for 39 years, collected the rents should also be recovered by taking appropriate action against the culprits and also the judgments passed by the courts in favor of the real Sikh riot victims immediately. He appealed to the government that all the MLAs should make a list of the riot victims of their area and issue an order to give it to the government so that the real riot victims can get justice and also appealed to the riot victims to get justice. Stay in touch with Govt.
