Mahima Patel receives threats on PIL

According to the complaint,while Mahima had been warned of dire consequences if did not withdraw the PIL,Ganesh had been receiving calls threatening to elminate him along with his family members in case he failed to withdraw the PIL.

Mahima,a Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee member,and Ganesh are petitioners in the PIL filed last year seeking quashing of a government order which allows an associate member of a house building cooperative society to be eligible for allotment of sites,which is still pending before the High Court.

The duo in their PIL has also sought for independent probe into the alleged violations and land grabbing by house building cooperative societies to the extent of about Rs three lakh crore.
