If you suspect that an individual clerk misused your money intended for stamp duty registration, it is important to take appropriate legal action. Here are some steps you could consider:
- Gather evidence: Collect any evidence you have, such as transaction receipts, correspondence, or any other documents related to the payment and communication with the clerk or revenue department. This evidence will be crucial in supporting your case.
- Contact the Revenue Department: Inform the Revenue Department or the relevant authority in Haryana about the incident, providing them with all the relevant details and evidence. They may initiate an internal investigation into the matter.
- File a complaint: If the Revenue Department is unresponsive or does not take appropriate action, you may consider filing an FIR with the police under IPC Sections - 406 (criminal breach of trust), 420 (Cheating), 468 (Forgery) or 120B (criminal conspiracy) as the case may be. Visit your local police station and explain the situation, providing them with all the evidence you have.
