BJP MLA Narendra Mehta
On September 8, Vohra approached PM Modi, whom he described as his childhood friend from B N School in Vadnagar in Gujarat, and sought his intervention in the dispute. He said the disputed land had been sold to Vohra in 1989 by Renol Lobo and five others. Lobo and the others later sold the land to Swayam Builders in 2011, he said.
Soon after, Mehta announced that he would relinquish possession of the property and withdraw a complaint filed against Vohra.
He said the company decided to return the land to Mukesh Parekh and Mervin Fernandes after a dispute arose over the property. Mehta further claimed that Seven Eleven had purchased the property through duly registered transactions from Joseph Fernandes and Mukesh Parekh. Bhayander: The Mira-Bhayander Municipal Corporation on Wednesday cancelled the construction permission granted to Seven Eleven company, days after BJP MLA Narendra Mehta announced that his company would relinquish possession of the disputed land following the matter being taken up with Prime Minister Narendra Modi . On Wednesday, Mehta issued a statement denying that he or his company had cheated anyone.
