Subject: Request for introduction of new tenant/servant police verification form in all district of Delhi and whole country.
Sir,
I would like to draw your kind attention towards a most important aspect of tenant and servant police verification process of the country. The police verification of tenant and servant is the most important step to ensure the security and control the unwarranted person of criminal background in the flats of residential area. Without proper residential and identity proof no one gets flat on rent as per rules. The whole paper of whereabouts is submitted in the police station for further investigation. But in practically speaking, this is not properly enforced or implemented by the people of the country. Generally one can get flat on rent through property dealers and estate agents and they themselves conduct the police verification. As per rule it is the duty of owner of the flat to conduct tenant and servant police verification otherwise legal action can be taken under section 188 IPC. But almost all owners of flats ask property dealers to do police verification. It is fact that in most of the cases property dealers or estate agents does the verification without putting the signature of owner of the flats. The responsibility of wrong verification is not fixed against the property dealer in spite of commit mistake in verification.
The present police verification form does not have any column for property dealers or estate agents. Without fixing any legal responsibility of property dealers and estate agents no action is possible against the wrong doing in verification. There are innumerable property dealers and estate agents are spreading throughout the country and they generally open their office in residential areas like Dwarka Sub-city, New Delhi. They do not require any legal documents and permission of any kind from the authority. It is strange but true. They are doing huge business of estate for sale and purchase of the flats or rent out the flats. But they do not have any responsibly and accountability. This is a great lacuna in the law that they earn money without any legal bounding. That is the reason that they are engaged in wrong things most of the time. They do not bother to give flat on rent without any social responsibly. They are also engaged in unauthorized construction or encroachment in even government land and flats. It is not easy to apprehend or find out the culprit without proper police verification. The time has come to streamline the tenant/servant police verification and make it mandatory owner and property dealers. The following suggestions can be inducted for making the system more concrete or spotless:
- A new tenant/servant verification form should be introduced in which signature or rubber stamp with address of property dealer should be made compulsory or mandatory for verification. A new form has already introduced in South District, Vasant kunj area in Delhi. RWA and Gram Sabha etc. should be included in enforcing the verification. It is advisable to conduct all the verification through or by the RWA and Gram Sabha etc in order to make the entire system consolidate (Copy enclosed)
- The property dealers should be covered under any act for their legal status. At present there is no requirement of any kind of legal permission or order. This tradition should be changed and some kind of permission or legal binding should be initiated so that some kind of legal pressure or check can be introduced. They can open their office even in residential colonies without any hindrance of law. This practice makes the system weak and vulnerable. In the presence of illegal commercial activities security can not be ensured in residential areas.
- Police verification of tenant and servant make mandatory for owner or tenant of the flats to submit the copy of verification at the time of formalities of banks, income tax return and admission of school or college. No election Identity card, Unique cards, Pass Port, Ration cards are issued without submitting the copy of police verification. (tenant/servants) This kind of compulsion is necessary for the implementation of verification. Especially Election Identity Card does not issue without submitting the copy of police verification.
- All the records or thump impression of tenant and servant should be upload in the web site so that trace is easier in case of any incidence. It will be easier after issuing unique card in future.
Thanking you
Yours truly,
