Vadra land deal: Haryana govt denies IAS officer Khemka's allegations

August 12, 2013 09:12

The Haryana government has denied allegations against its Department of Town and Country Planning in connection with the Robert Vadra-DLF land deal in the light of claims made by whistle blower Indian Administrative Service officer Ashok Khemka.

Khemka has alleged that Vadra, a businessman and son-in-law of Congress chief Sonia Gandhi, "falsified documents" to execute a series of "sham transactions" for the sale of 3.5 acres of land in Gurgaon to real estate giant DLF for Rs 58 crore.

"These allegations are wrong and misleading, aimed at sensationalisation of an issue which is non-existent," a Haryana government release said, quoting a DTCP spokesperson.
