“The DC may be unaware of the fact that some file records in the department have been distorted or are missing because of a conspiracy with some vested encroachers”, the forum stated, before adding that “The DC has failed to verify why officials of the Department of Housing are not submitting reports of their near and dear ones.” The CCLAPF further said that DC Singh is misusing and misunderstanding Section 133 Cr PC and is arbitrarily imposing Section 133 and 138 Cr PC to carry out eviction
