Kausa village of Mohammed Hussain Mohammed Ali Karvinkar land in Maharashtra's Thane district has a history of illegal land grabbing and encroachment. It is believed to have been illegally acquired by a group of people in the 1970s and 1980s, who created fake land titles and sold plots to unsuspecting buyers.

The land was initially designated as a green belt area and reserved for various purposes such as public facilities, open land, and agricultural cultivation. However, due to the illegal sale of land and the rapid urbanization of the area, the land has seen a massive transformation, with many unauthorized constructions mushrooming in the region.

The Maharashtra government has taken several steps to reclaim the land and crack down on illegal constructions. In 2017, the government issued a notification to take back the encroached land and restore it to its original status. The government has also formed a committee to investigate fraudulent land transactions and take stringent action against those involved in illegal activities.

Currently, the government is working on developing a plan to regularise the illegally occupied land and provide ownership papers to genuine Mohammad Hussain Mohammed Ali Karvinkar.

Transport
