Dear Sir,

Greetings from the Residents of Raksha Retreat(RR) II, Satal, Bhimtal.
Sir, I wish to make a brief introduction about  Raksha Retreat II,Satal,Bhimtal.  Sir, It is a Society Cottage Complex in the vicinity of Satal, Bhimtal of around 85 cottages belonging to many high ranking , distinguished Army, Navy, Air Force, Police and Para Military  officers. The original builder Samiah   had, midway, sub contracted the construction of the cottages to Shikhar Constructions, Nainital.

The CEO of Shikhar Construction, Mr Manoj Joshi, being a local resident, took advantage of this fact and  indulged in unauthorised construction in the Cottages Complex.  Since most of the Cottage owners are from Delhi and other areas outside Bhimtal, Mr Manoj Joshi unfairly and without any knowledge of the Cottage Owners, indulged in encroachment in the parking and common areas of the RR II Complex, connived with some unsuspecting individuals and constructed unauthorised cottages in Parking and Common Areas.  Thus, Mr Manoj Joshi made huge profits through this illegal and unethical construction and deprived the original owners of Parking and other common areas. He used his local antecedents, muscle power and influence to encroach in the RR II complex. The matter about the illegal construction and encroachment has also been reported to Lake area Development Authority, Bhimtal.

Recently on 20 Jan 15, Mr Manoj Joshi sent some of the local goons led by Mr  CM Bisht to the RR II Complex to construct an unauthorised gate. The Representative of Mr Joshi threatened the Care Taker of  RR II  with bloodshed if his team was stopped from the construction. Fortunately, the President of RR II Owners Association who had rushed to the illegal construction site in time, intervened, to stop the construction, notwithstanding threatening gestures by goons of Mr Manoj Joshi.

The matter was reported to the SHO, Mr Pant, PS  Bhimtal and an application has been given to file FIR against Mr Manoj Joshi and his goons. Mr Manoj Joshi is making desperate attempts to use his influence with the SHO to prevent the filing of FIR. Since Mr Manoj Joshi is local resident, influential and has got money and muscle power, he is pulling all stops to prevail upon the police and local authorities not to act against him and his representatives.

In view of the foregoing, you are requested to kindly intervene and direct SHO Bhimtal to file FIR against the culprits, investigate and take suitable action to stop Mr Manoj Joshi from illegal construction and threatening the residents.

Sorry for taking liberty to send you this email but we have no choice in view of the influence of Mr Manoj Joshi who will go all out to influence the SHO and local authorities to protect his own interest.

The copy of the Complaint  with a request to file FIR   with PS, Bhimtal is attached.

Thanking you

With Warm Regards

Yours Sincerely
