Former Badarganj municipality mayor Uttam Kumar Saha has been accused of irregularities and forgery for allegedly issuing Bangladeshi birth certificates to two Indian nationals and a death certificate for their mother. The complaint, filed with the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) in Rangpur, claims that the certificates were issued during Saha’s tenure. Despite multiple complaints since 2023, no effective action has reportedly been taken, leading to public frustration.
According to the complaint, the two brothers, Manoj Kumar Saha and Rajib Kumar Saha, are residents of Barrackpore in West Bengal, India, and hold Indian passports. Their mother, Arati Rani Saha, allegedly died in Kolkata, yet a Bangladeshi death certificate was issued in her name in 2019. Locals allege that the forged documents were used to secure ownership of valuable property in Badarganj with the help of influential figures.
Saha has denied the allegations, claiming the certificates were based on earlier records from 1995, though no such documentation has been found. The ACC has stated that an investigation is ongoing, but the lack of visible progress has caused local disappointment.
