They say never wash dirty linen in public. But if it brings along the hope of justice, Parvinder Singh has no qualms.

Singh, a railway contractor and nephew of Delhi police inspector Mahender Singh, alleges that his uncle has amassed property worth Rs 4 crore and has illegally occupied his house in Daryaganj, refusing to vacate it.
However, the market value of the property exceeds Rs 6 crore and even the complainant has failed to mention the real value.
"In 1974, my uncle joined as a constable in technical division of the Delhi police. He went on to become an inspector and retired on April 30. During his tenure, he earned money disproportionate to his known source of income. Moreover, he had not informed the department about his assets and hasn't even paid tax to the I-T department," alleges Singh.
"A person, who already owns a DDA flat, cannot apply for another one. But my uncle furnished a wrong affidavit to DDA and got the second flat," adds Singh.
Parvinder Singh further stated that his uncle was claiming House Rent Allowance (HRA) from his department using fake rent receipts and had even forged his mother's signature.
"The present accommodation - 7/20, Ram Tel Bhawan on Ansari Road in Daryaganj - of my uncle belongs to us. He had never paid us rent and neither have we ever given him a rent receipt. Earlier, we used to live in the same house and my father had given him a room in the building as he didn't have any other place in Delhi.

"Recently, I got to know that he had submitted rent receipts with forged signatures of my mother, Kiran Devi. We approached the Joint Commissioner of Police (Provision and Logistics), M S Sandhu and gave them a sample of my mother's signature verified by a bank. But nothing concrete has emerged," added Singh.
When contacted, Mahender Singh said, "I had a family dispute with Parvinder and he is trying to implicate me in false cases. This is an act of personal vendetta against me and he is making all sorts of allegations post-retirement to malign my dignity." Meanwhile, Joint Commissioner of Police (Provision and Logistics), M S Sandhu, refused to comment on the issue.
