'No political vendetta in Vadra land deal probe'

Haryana Government on Saturday there is "no vendetta politics in ordering of a judicial probe into grant of licence(s) to some entities, including Robert Vadra's company, for developing commercial colonies in Sector 83 of Gurgaon. We do not believe in vendetta politics", state Finance Minister Abhimanyu Singh said, rejecting opposition charges that the BJP government's move smacked of vengeance.

Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar had assured the state assembly that we are not going to act (against irregularities in land deals) out of political vendetta, the Minister told reporters after a meeting of BJP's state executive here. He, however, accused the previous Congress government of committing irregularities in land deals. Under the Congress regime in Haryana, huge chunks of land belonging to poor farmers were forcibly acquired at dirt cheap prices and then handed over to favourite builders,he alleged. Referring to a vigilance probe into the allotment of industrial plots in Panchkula under the previous Congress regime, the Minister said the state government will investigate wherever there were irregularities.
State Minister Anil Vij said the government was committed to uncover all acts of omission and commission in the last 10 years of the Congress government
