In this situation, I bought 0.0101 acres of land twice from Md. Ashraf Hussain Sultan and I have been occupying it for a long time and I have taken a loan of 15 lakhs from Panchagarh Sonali Bank on this land. But behind my land is the district office of the Directorate of Agricultural Extension.
Present District Agriculture Officer Md Riaz Uddin Deputy Director District Agriculture Extension Directorate Panchagarh and Md Sakhawat Hossain Additional Deputy Director District Agriculture Extension Directorate Panchagarh are making a deep conspiracy to evict me from the land in a completely illegal manner.
Earlier, when there was a dispute with the former district agriculture officers regarding this land, both the parties complained to the office of the District Commissioner of Panchagarh along with the landowner.
Pursuant to their complaint, LA Branch, Panchagarh Collector, Panchagarh File No. -/ Document No. 4-12/2007, issued an order regarding Agricultural Extension Office land that the said land is adjoining the road outside the walls of the Agricultural Office. And since the said land was purchased by Mr. Md. Ashraf Hossain Sultan, the said land can be acquired through acquisition, he gave an order dated 21-5-2017. After that, on 12-12-2010, the district agricultural extension office again complained to the district commissioner against the land donor, and the district commissioner accepted the complaint regarding the seizure of land property on the basis of the investigation report formed for monitoring the investigation activities on 03-01-2011. Ordered on date, Md. Ashraf Hussain Sultan, Father Siraj Uddin Ahmed, Sang- Kayetpara, Panchgarh.

The victim also complained that some dishonest officials and employees of the Department of Agriculture are planning to evict my business from here due to greed. Even if I go to do business here, they have to pay a huge amount of money, otherwise they will sue me and kill me, they are threatening me through various means. In such a situation, for the security of my business and land, I apply to the District Commissioner to determine the boundaries of my land with the Department of Land and Agricultural Extension.In view of the said application, the district administration issued an order to the upazila land officer to determine the boundaries. But before the upazila land officer determined the boundaries of the land, they pre-planned on 17-07-2022 at approximately 10 am on my usufructuary land.Taking advantage of this opportunity, the agricultural officials and employees completely illegally disobeyed several orders and suggestions of the District Commissioner and constructed a wall with two large iron poles inside my land.
My land was confiscated by agricultural officials and employees. They expressed through various persons that if I had paid them a large amount of money, I would not have faced such problems. In such a situation, to verify the authenticity of the complaint of Md. Islamul Kalam, copies of the order and advice given by the Deputy Commissioner were collected and it was seen that the investigation of every complaint from the office of the Deputy Commissioner. And after the hearing of both parties, advice/instructions were given to the District Agriculture Extension Directorate to acquire that land. The truth of Md Islamul Kalam's complaint has been found.

In response to such a question, he said, I don't know why the previous officers did not prohibit it. But we will evict that workshop shop.In this regard, Md. Riaz Uddin, Deputy Director, District Agriculture Extension Directorate, Panchagarh said, they forcibly occupied the space in front of the office.
