Rana said, "I have around 20 to 25 such people from UP, Haryana, Rajasthan, and Madhya Pradesh in my contact. Their family members have declared them dead officially due to some family dispute and thereby grabbed their land or asset. Several such people have been staging a dharna at Jantar Mantar for the past many years so that government records could be rectified."
