Jharkhand Chief Minister Raghubar Das today asked to scrap fake land settlements which affected several poor tribals and farmers after a probe and initiate stringent action against those engaged in such activities.
Taking questions at the 'Jan Samvad Kendra', a programme to find solutions to the problems of people, Das asked Chief Secretary Rajbala Verma and Land and Revenue Secretary K K Soan to probe the matter across the state.
Das said complaints, particularly from cities, were received that land of poor tribals and farmers were being usurped through fake settlements.
In Ranchi alone, complains of thousands of acres settlement had been received, an official release said quoting him.
