A two-hectare plot in Kotana village, Baghpat, has been auctioned for ₹1.38 crore. This property, declared enemy property in 2010, was associated with former Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf.
The land, located in Baraut tehsil, was under the Custodian Of Enemy Property, a department of India’s Ministry of Home Affairs. While Musharraf, who was born in Delhi and passed away in 2023, never lived there, his grandfather, Syed Musharrafuddin, did.
Baraut’s Sub-Divisional Magistrate, Amar Verma, noted that Musharraf’s uncle, Humayun, resided in Kotana before Independence.

The auction proceeds will be deposited into the Ministry of Home Affairs’ account.
