Quick Summary

This discussion explores the legality of plots sold on land converted to 'farmhouse land' under rule 90A, which was originally agricultural land. The original land couldn't be converted to residential use due to master plan rules. The property dealer allegedly divided the land into plots and sold them without adhering to farmhouse land bylaws. The user seeks to know if these plots are legally permissible for any use, including residential, and if legal action for cheating (under IPC 420) can be taken against the dealer, especially as the property is located in Jodhpur, Rajasthan.
