Fwd: REPLY TO MR MANOJ MITTAL, on his Whatts App message of 25th Feb

[LTRA LTRA]

Dear Mr Mittal,

 

It is sad that ‘to grab power’ you are twisting facts and yet again misleading the general members, in a bid to retain your post as General Secretary, which you had publicly denounced in the General Body meeting held at Geeta Bhawan on 29th Nov. The lust for power forces you to try anything however false it might be. Let us examine the two legal cases in the right perspective.

 

HIGH COURT CASE

 

Here we are fighting for our right to ownership in the whole project. The law says that if, the allottee has paid 100% of his consideration money, he becomes the part owner in the Project. The allottees have paid almost 90/95% of the money till now, as that is what has been demanded by PDL. Our contention in the Court is that, the balance amount left is only 5% to be paid at the time of possession. PDL will never ever ask for balance and hence we will never get a chance to pay that 5% amount which we are willing to pay. We are praying to the Court to consider our 95% as full consideration and grant us right to ownership in Project. THIS IS THE ONLY POINT THAT HON'BLE HIGH COURT has to decide in our favour.

 

Hon'ble High Court does not have to decide on possession, irregularities, illegalities, or even compensation to us. Therefore, the story of drawings etc etc that Mr Mittal has now invented to save his face against his wrong doings is completely wrong here. Members who were present in High Court in one of the hearings last March, wherein Mr Sanjiv Jain of PDL was summoned will recall that, their lawyer Mr Sandeep Sethi, had argued that possession was not the issue before the HIGH COURT, and Hon'ble Judge, Justice Mr Jayant Nath, agreed with him, as well as exempted Mr Sanjiv Jain from appearance in the Court, WITHOUT asking any question from him.

 

HENCE, THIS NEW STORY OF SOME MAPS AND ITS EFFECT ON HIGH COURT IS NOT TAINABLE FROM ANY ANGLE. I would also like to add here, that while Mr Mittal is right that Court grants dates that are not in anybody's hands, BUT HOW MANY TIMES WE SEE THE PLAINTIFF OF COMPLAINANT ASKING FOR DATES .In the current case, Mr Mittal asked for an adjournment on 18th November to file fresh documents, midway when Mr Lahoty was arguing the case. Had he NOT asked for adjournment, probably the arguments would have been concluded and some order would have come. The Hon'ble High Court gave FOUR week time to LRTA to file documents with advance copy to PDL and fixed the date for 18^th January 2016.

 

Mr Mittal did nothing in the four weeks given to LTRA, and till the 18^th Jan 2016, did not give any documents to our Lawyer. Hence, our lawyer had to seek adjournment, and the Court fixed the date for 8^th Aug 2016.

 

In the joint meeting of old MC, new Monitoring Committee and Finance Committee on 23 Jan 2016, when confronted, Mr Mittal, rudely replied that all documents belong to him and he will give only after he gets Consultancy Charges. Further, he mentioned that all documents are already in EOW file. Now what does that mean:

 

THERE ARE NO FRESH DOCUMENTS WITH HIM. EOW CASE WAS PREPARED LAST YEAT MARCH BY MYSELF, ASEEM AND PANKAJ. MR MITTAL IS CLEARLY MISLEADING EVERYBODY, the members, our lawyers and even the Hon'ble High Court for his personal gains. HE HAS GIVEN A SEVEN MONTH TIME TO PDL TO GET EXTRA FAR THAT THEY ARE SEEKING.

 

I along with Mohit did offer to make a presentation for Mr Lahoty on the basis of all explosive data Mr Mittal claimed to have. BUT I AM STILL WAITING. NO DATA CAME MY WAY AND NONE WILL, AS THERE IS NONE WITH MR MITTAL.

 

NCDRC CASE

 

Till last year January, we were taking dates in NCDRC court as well. It is well documented and members can see this posted on the internet as well. When we, i.e. Me, Aseem and Pankaj started follow up, the case started moving. Mr Modi always claimed credit for early dates granted announcing that LRTA was getting early dates as Justice D.K. Jain was his PERSONAL FRIEND, and Mr Modi wanted to be acknowledged for that. He claimed this was his contribution to LTRA, as he did nothing substantial, he cooked up this story.

 

Mr Lahoty proudly claimed that LTRA was the first case against any builder where interim benefit was being granted. Now, that the date will come in regular course, where is the so called FRIENDSHIP disappeared. The date in DUE COURSE is a regular practice in NCDRC. MR MITTAL, let me remind you, we have not, I repeat NOT asked for adjournment unlike in HIGH COURT, where you did.

 

So, don't mix the two to confuse matters.

 

Also let me inform all the members, it was US who always raised the issue of including the additional 100 members who have paid their legal contribution but are still not part of our legal cases. Time and again we have discussed the matter with Mr Lahoty and time and again it has been stalled by Mr Mittal and Mr Modi for reasons best known to them. Even the Monitoring committee finalized the fee with Mr Lahoty for the additional members, which was gladly accepted and appreciated by members of team Samarpit but was denied by Mr Mittal and Mr Modi, again for reasons best known to them.

 

EOW

 

The criminality of PDL is being dealt here, which is the right forum. EOW has hired an independent architect, as told to us by the dealing SHO, and detailed working is under process, which will be used to nail PDL, here. The entire case at EOW was possible due to personal contacts used by Dr Shandilya with Commissioner of Police and Hon'ble Lt. Governor. The architect appointed by EOW is the result of his personal contacts used, and is FREE OF COST, and NOT like Mr Mittal who wanted money even to president our complaint to DCP EOW.

 

Mr Mittal is now also collecting money Rs 25,000 from some members to build up a corpus for god knows what.

 

In the past also Mr Mittal paid Rs. 5,00,000.00 to Mr Vabhav Gaggar which still has not been utilised. At one point he even referred his cousin’s company to manage the operations of LTRA at a fee of Rs. 35000.00/month that too from his own office (to handle paper work and communication with the members). He even wanted his close friend to handle any additional court cased rather than Mr Lahoty. It is quite clear that Mr Mittal is just finding ways to ensure that LTRA keeps spending money one way or the other, and his close friends get benefit from it, no matter whether it benefits LTRA or not.

 

I have put all the facts correctly and nothing has been hidden or overstated. Knowing the nature and lust for power of Mr Mittal and Mr Modi, I have refrained from fighting elections of LTRA. But shall offer my services to the best of my ability, without any post or position. But, my sincere request is to evaluate both the groups and vote for one group en block, which you feel can best protect your money and ensure early possession, without seeking any personal gain. May god bless LTRA and all its members.

 

 

Sincerely yours,

 

 

Sunil Sethi

 

 

 

[manoj mittal]

It is shameful on part of Sethi Ji to stoop to a low level who ran away from contesting elections because scared of being accountable and all he can do is keep telling lies one after the other because he forgets that it was only Mittal who presented all lawyers and even cousin chartered accountants in front of everyone before entering into any agreement whereas Mittal had all the power to do so without asking anyone and sign a cheque which he never did .

But Sethi Ji Can you tell why you have chosen not to contest elections but has the time in this world to become a spoilsport at this age rather than being graceful.

Can you swear on Geeta that I was not physically and mentally present in Mukesh's office all the time even when i had my exam nest day of FMS to get the Complaint Ready and even went to all the photocopy shops at Ashok Vihar to get photocopies done.

Shame on you that you have started lie and i challanege Pankaj and Aseem if they can even explain a word of complaint .

Also about what i wanted to share will be put to the court soon and will put you to shame that what are you opposing shamelessly and can you deny that all the documents and maps on which all court cases and EOW cases are based on have been collecetd by me and mukesh alone .

Mr Sethi there are more than 15 people who have given 25000 and wait and watch others will follow soon as we are doing real work vs reel work of mud slinging and shouting and do not worry whatever may happen you will not be able to keep me away from fighting PDL as i do not want to waste time on you

[sunil sethi]

Dear Friends,

I am NOT running away from accountability.People know this by now.I am NOT fighting for any post, as I have personal reasons that the flat I hold will have to be transferred to my brother, as part of my family settlement in the next 2/3 months. I AM NOT LIKE YOUR MR K K MODI, to first become President and then transfer the flat and leave LTRA in the lurch. I discussed this with the Seniors, my friends and well wishers as well as my team, and this was the most logical and ethical decision to take. However, I shall continue to serve the cause without any post. BUT THEN PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND MR MODI, HAVE DIFFERENT DEFINITION OF ETHICS.

Yes, I am willing to swear by Bhagwat Geeta, that you were physically present on one day, just one last day at Mukesh's Office.While me, Aseem,Pankaj and Rishi were preparing all the documents for EOW, you were on your computer inside the cabin of Mukesh for the entire time while we were working. You came out late in the evening when we had finished the entire work, even the numbering of pages, which is in my handwriting. And,  yes you did go with Pankaj late evening to get the paper book for photo copy and binding.That was indeed your contribution.I applaud you for this.If my version is even distorted a little, I would like Mukesh, to clarify, as he is certainly more ethical than you.

Now, that you are hell bent on questioning my personal integrity and work, even though I have never ever tried to claim personal credit, let me ask a question to your another group member.Is it NOT true that sometime in March last year, Mr Rajesh Gupta, you called me on my mobile to thank me for my selfless effort for the cause?  Didn't you say that you have become a fan of me?  And, I never gave you a  list of my achievements. Rajeshji, please say this with a clean and clear conscience.I know you are above all this politics. And, Mukeshji, I hold you in high esteem, as we have worked together for a number of hours and have enjoyed your very nice hospitality. Didn't you comment when we were just sitting casually after the meeting on 23rd Jan 2016, in Maidens, that I had truly worked for the cause. It is really sad to hear these words from Mr Mittal. Please, let us maintain some class and dignity.

Also, unless the documents that Mr Mittal is saying are put in public domain, I cannot comment. If they can achieve something great, its for everybody's benefit including me. I will be the first person to acknowledge and appreciate that .I am only against you taking adjournment twice and hence a long date. One adjournment was fine, but second is trouble some.

In the end, please fight for your elections ethically and win ethically.It will be more satisfying for everybody including yourself, and of course for the cause.

I wish you all the very best for elections .As should be, I shall go with the mandate of the members.

Best Regards,

[manoj mittal]

Now as you got cornered in the name of religion the truth has come out that you admitted that I was Physically there whole day and now Swear on Geeta again that was it not me who made the whole sequence of annexures and the whole sequencing and content of the complaint along with you whereas Aseem Only did the indexing part of it and Pankaj only came in the middle of the day for two hours .

Also are you brave enough to admit  that i had my exam next day and still invested my time for the cause as the concerened police officer gave 24 hrs to submit the documents.

Can you deny the fact that i attended all meetings with the Police and even at times alone also.

Also the mail has been sent to all what i shared with chawlaji on 27th Jan which will make it clear that i had substance to share but have no trust on you and mohit 

Yes I admit that God has given you some talent to understand but in my view you are wasting it for negative things.

Can you deny the fact that the whole EOW complaint was made on basis of all documents collected by me and mukesh alone and otherwise even compling the EOW complaint was not even possible however high official one may know

Mr Sethi be part of a constructive opposition and respect democracy. Being a destructive opposition can only harm the main cause.

Tell me one thing which you are your any team member has collected against PDL so far or used against PDL independently.

If your are so concerned about the cause stick to the flat and why are you transferring it to your brothers family because you do not understand that Modi Ji had to sell his flat for compelling Financail Reason which you never respected and ripped him  apart using all colourful language inspite of being his childhood  friend and neighbour and even forget that he is elder to you.

Also just consider the grace of Mr Modi who resigned otherwise he could have done what he did now even than to keep his power intact but it was his mistake that he trusted you and people like Pankaj and handed over the baton to you and you guys created a mess out of it because unfortunately you showed double face of instigating us towards Pankaj and Vice Versa .

Alongside on one hand you used to bash Mohit in our closed door meetings in his absence and may be doing the same for us in his presence.

It is high time Mr Sethi be a gentleman because there are enough double face people in this society 

Show Grace as per your age and do not force me to put up a fight of words like people of the same age

Do not fool people that you did not fight because the flat is to be transferred but the fact remains that you want to play safe and is not a risk taker as Mr Modi and that is the reason why you got the elections postponed last time.

All the best

[sunil sethi]

Dear Friends,

There is no point saying anything more here.Knowing Mr Mittal, he is the last one to give credit to anyone, even his team members.

Mr Mittal, you hand picked 5 executives, they all turned against you, monitoring committee members as well as finance committee members, nearly all of them turned against you.Thats because of your bad attitude and no respect for anybody, Senior or junior .Obviously, everybody can't be a fool Just pause and think.Please change your attitude and you will be a better liked person.

I have nothing more to add and shall not reply to your mail any further.I understand it is the last leg towards elections and these things shall die naturally in the next two days.Please do not waste further time here on mails, rather spend time on convassing for your seat, as I do not want to be blame if you loose, god forbid.

All the best.May the most deserving candidate win.

Sunil Sethi

[manoj mittal]

Dear Friends 

Thank God Mr Sunil Sethi understood that being graceful is a better option as he got taste of his own strategy of being offensive.

Mr Sethi I am not here to please one or many so therefore i do not care who or how many  turns against me because my objective is to fight with PDL and not contest Roshanara Club Elections etc.

I thank God for my aggressive attitude because that is required to fight corruption and we have seen enough demostartion of humbleness from you and mohit so do not talk about being humble.

History says that crusaders and radical thinkers were hardly liked by masses when they were fighting so it does not matter whether I am a mass hero or zero because my battle is to save my hard earned money and not please members by offering them sugar coated poison or hatred laced drinks and snacks.

Although you have written so much bad and lies against me , I expect you to acknowledge that all the documents which you all are using for all the fight so far has been collected by me and mukesh alone.Otherwise tell me even once you filed an RTI or visited any of the departments to get any information against PDL. Do you have a heart to acknowledge our contribution to the cause

As you now understood the code of conduct ,let people fight democratic elections with grace and specially mentor your team to be graceful 

Let the best happen for the cause and share constructive conversations

Reagrds

Dear Friends,

Consequent to the high headedness and lack of transparency of the Last MC, the new MC was elected headed by Mr Kanodia, to remove the pains felt by the members and to make sure that LTRA functions better and the cause is addressed in efficient and transparent manner, so that we put pressure on PDL, as well as peruse legal course to get possession of our flats. The members were kind enough to see the point and new MC was given a mandate to do things in better way. But sadly, that has not been achieved so far.

To start with, Mr Kanodia the elected President, changed his colors soon after getting the title," President ". He publicly announced that he will form an office, which he said he will manage free of cost from his friend, Mr Rakesh Bhargava. ( Mr Chawla is witness to this free gesture announced by him). Thereafter, he went on to pay Rs 13,000 per month to his friend, for an office that is 12 ft * 12 ft. and calming credit for this inexpensive deal.Please judge for yourself that, in present weak real estate scenario, who would pay Rs 90 per sq ft for an office in a bylane of Shakti Nagar, that too without a toilet and a pantry. 

Then, he went on, solely by himself, to nominate 5 people for Executive Committee, including Mr Jagdeep Kishore who  was part of the first MC headed by Dr Rakesh Sharma.,  I recorded my immediate dissent, for the following reasons:

1. Mr Kishore, in the first MC has influenced and taken Rs 10 compensation for himself and all the committee members in a deal that gave no benefit to the general members. I felt this was not a fair and above board deal. He compromised on the interests of general members.

2. Mr Kishore has not been part of our Legal fight against PDL. He is supposedly fighting his own case. So if he is not fighting his battle alongside us, why should he be part of the legal team. 

3. Mr Kishore, at one time, was sent by PDL to assess the intensity and working of the last MC, and represented PDL to broker a deal with LTRA. He had a meeting with last MC, discussed our plans and way forward and never came back. He was in fact, informer of PDL.

4. Mr Kishore, solely agreed to pay Rs 8.00 lacs to Mr Lahoty for adding new members, as Chairman of the then Montoring Committee. Hr specifically asked all members present there, including Mr Chawla and Mr Mohit to leave the room so that he could be alone with Mr Lahoty. He agreed to pat Rs 8.00 lacs instead of Rs 5.00 decided earlier. This deal was also out of line and not in favor of LTRA.

5. As Chairman of Montoning Committee, he was also party to getting a long date in Jan 2016, in High Court, as a lawyer himself, he should have known the procedures and should have pre emptied the situation instead of asking for a date himself.

I personally felt, his actions were NOT honorable,so I objected to his being in new MC.

After this , Mr Kanodia, in one of the MC meetings, when I was not present, as I had a pre planned meeting with Mr Vaibhav Gaggar, resolved that the legal team i.e. me, Rajesh Malhotra and Mohit will report to Mr Kishore and he will vett any document prepared by any lawyer before filing. We agreed, as we thought that the cause was greater and the work should go on. On the last filing of application with NCDRC, we, the legal team sent each MC member, a copy of application.  NO BODY BOTHERED TO REPLY for more than 5 days. Then, getting frustrated, I and Rajesh, both resigned from the legal committee. Later, Mr Kishore sent a mail saying that being a lawyer himself, he cannot comment on a fellow lawyers application. Then, I ask everybody, including the President, WHAT IS HE DOING IN MC, and why is the President hell bent on keeping this nuisance. Unless, the agenda of the President along with him is to delay and sabotage the legal team. THIS IS THE MAIN CAUSE OF RIFT BETWEEN THE LEGAL TEAM AND MR KANODIA, AND the reason of me and Rajesh resigning.

Mr Kanodia, instead of being thankful to Mr Rajesh Malhotra, that he used his personal contacts to get Luthra and Luthra on board for Rs 8.00 lacs for NCDRC as well as High Court, and his tireless effort to manage legal affairs without ant post, has in fact, gone on record to say that, Rajesh has given business to Luthra and Luthra, implying that Rajesh has used LTRA platform for some personal gain. This thought is totally uncalled for and is sick. Disgusted, Mr Malhotra, has opted to be out of legal team.  He has also announced publicly, that should MC want to change Luthra, he will arrange to get the refund of money from Luthra. What else would anybody want ? But, Mr Kanodia is not impressed. He goes on to bang the phone of Mr Malhotra, when he is called. Is this the way a President ought to behave? He is disturbed to see the popularity and bonafides of Lagal team but fails to realize that it is his legal team. Personal egos take a top priority. Personally, he had no in-depth knowledge of the Project nor the cases. Ask him any question, and he is clueless.

Mr Kanodia says he has done a lot of hard work to establish the office, to get FDR done and with MCD, and wants everybody to pat his back. To apprise you friends, LTRA office is not functional, it is closed as of now, the FDR took three months to happen, and MCD work, nobody knows what happened there as there is no paper on record. What good are verbal averments and how can they help LTRA in any forum, I don't know. According to me they are useless. So actually no work done by him so far. He announce at the time of seeking your votes, that a monthly meeting and a monthly new letter will be sent. Not even a single meeting or newsletter sent till now. 

Mr Kanodia says, and this is recorded in his mail to Pankaj, ' DONT TELL ME ANYTHING, I AM MORE SUCCESSFUL THAM YOU'. He means that since, he has more money, every body should listen to him. Was he voted because of this. I have objected to his this line, on record, and since then, he is annoyed with me. Friends, you decide, is this the way a President has to conduct himself. Is this the way organizations should function. If this was indeed the case, Mukesh Ambani should rule this country and later his son, of the next 100 years. This is NOT our culture and values and shows the shallowness and low character in any individual.

Mr Kanodia, was nominated for Montoring Committee, even though he was part of last MC, a clear deviation. It was decided at AGM at Geeta Bhawan, that members of Montoring Committee will not fight next elections. But, so power hungry he was, that at the time of elections, he resigned from Montoring Committee and nominated himself for the same. The man is power and post hungry, egoistic and has no respect for his fellow members, and totally unfit for the post. I call on him to have a GBM, and have an open debate with me, on LTRA, the Project and Legal cases and working. He will not accept this, as he has neither got the knowledge nor the guts.

About Mr Mittal, I want to comment less, as I want less nuisance to follow. Only two things, he says ' Lahoty must have called NCDRC judge to give a bad order to us'. Shows his class and thinking. Secondly, he picks up the bag and papers of Mr Kanodia, after the meeting to keep in Mr Kanodia's car. I am personally no body to comment, but shows his class and character. He also asks Mr Bobby Chandhok, to stop PDL from getting any Completion Certificate, to which he was politely told that this will be detrimental to the Project rather than helping. Since, he is not in the first phase, he wants nobody even in the first phase to get any possession. The idea is, 'if I am not getting it, nobody should'.

Friends, disgusted with these events and people, me and Rajesh decided to step down from the legal committee as we have had enough. I personally apologize to all my friends and well wishers who voted for Mr Kanodia at my insistence, as he is not what I thought. My judgement has failed totally. These gentlemen are worse that even older MC members like Mr Manoj Mittal and Mr K K Modi, as they at least knew the subject and they never tried to block me from doing any work for LTRA, but these people are worse. In the end, I request each one of you to please keep a strict vigil on the proceedings as personal gains should not be taken to compromise the common interest.

Me and Rajesh, has promised the members, especially Mr Chawla, Mr Jalan and Mr Dabral that we shall continue till 8th Aug, till High Court hearing, we shall be there till 8th only. Later, Mr Kanodia and Mr Pramod Mittal can take up in their able hands.

Thank you for your patience, and god bless LTRA.

Sincerely yours,

Sunil Sethi

 Dear me,

Sunil ji,

It is indeed painful to go through your letter!

How people are flirting with the interest of more than two hundred members!

It is so frustrating to see people whom we trusted (mainly because of you)  busy consolidating their power base by inducting their friends irrespective of their of their suspected loyalties. Personal gains and consolidation of power seems to be the only important thing.

The obvious question is what can be done now?

Are members going to sit with folded hands like imbecile and watch the drama while Egos of few who have managed to occupy the highest position in our organisation keep promoting interests of PDL right in front of our eyes

Are we going to demand corrective measures?
It all depends on members!

Thanks for this invaluable letter!

Satish Dabral
