Anti-Vadra IAS officer Khemka gets transferred

July 15, 2014 13:44

IAS officer Ashok Khemka, against whom the Bhupinder Singh Hooda government in Haryana had sought a CBI probe, will be transferred on Central deputation, a report said on Tuesday.

The civil services board has approved the whistle-blower's deputation.

In January, the Haryana government had sought a CBI probe into Khemka's role in allotment of work for roofing sheets for warehouses.

Khemka had left the Hooda government embarrassed in October 2012, when he had cancelled the mutation of a Rs 58-crore land deal between United Progressive Alliance chairperson Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra's company, Skylight Hospitality, and reality giant DLF.
