Congress President Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra seems to have landed himself in trouble again. In a a 100-page report to the government, Haryana IAS officer Ashok Khemka, who flagged alleged irregularities in Vadra land deals, has claimed that Vadra falsified documents and executed a series of sham transactions for 3.53 acres land in Shikohpur village of Gurgaon, thereby pocketing a hefty premium on a commercial colony licence. CNN-IBN accessed Khemka's reply to a government-appointed inquiry committee, which had indicted him earlier this year. Khemka also highlighted a series of sham transactions undertaken between his company Skylight Hospitality and DLF Universal Limited – beginning 2011 and culminating in 2012. Khemka claimed that Vadra was favoured as he is Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law of Sonia Gandhi and helped in making these 'sham transactions' by Haryana's Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP). Khemka stated that both the sale deed of February 12, 2008 — through which Vadra's company, Skylight Hospitality, bought the land from Onkareshwar Properties — and the letter of intent for granting a commercial licence to his company issued by the DTCP in March 2008 are sham transactions, executed only to enable Vadra to collect market premium accruing to him due to state largesse. Khemka had earlier kicked up a political storm in 2012 when he alleged irregularities in the land dealings of Robert Vadra and DLF in Haryana and asked the state government to give him a copy of the inquiry reports conducted by it. Khemka had also sought a response from the government on whether a cheque issued by Robert Vadra's company was a dummy cheque or not. He had said if the report had appeared in newspapers then he should also have access to it. Khemka was transferred from Director General Consolidation of Land Holdings and Land Records-cum-Inspector General of Registration to his present posting in the State's Seed Development Corporation shortly after he initiated a probe into land dealings between Vadra and realty giant DLF. A probe report submitted by four deputy commissioners in Haryana had given a "clean chit" to Vadra over his land deals. The Prime Minister's Office in November, 2012 had told Allahabad High Court that charges of irregularities in land deals against Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law were false, vexatious and based on hearsay. via Top Stories - Google News http://news.google.com/news/url?sa=t&fd=R&usg=AFQjCNFLo7S-RNFRjSIP0ljU8Uerk9E0Tg&url=http://www.firstpost.com/business/robert-vadra-made-crores-from-gurgaon-deal-with-fake-papers-khemka-1023867.html | |||
