New Delhi: As the panel inquiring into grant of land licences to Robert Vadras’s company in Gurgaon is to submit its report today, Congress chief Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law on Thursday said he will “always be used for political gains” and government “can not prove anything” against him.
In a post on his Facebook wall, Vadra wrote, “Almost a decade of governments false and baseless accusations on me ! They cannot prove anything without proof, and there is nothing there to prove.”
“I will always be used for political gains, I know ... But I will walk with my head held high, as in time and with the truth which will conquer incorrect perceptions, created about me,” Vadra added.
His comment came on the day when Dhingra Commission, inquiring into grant of land licences to some companies including that of Robert Vadra's in Gurgaon, is to submit its report to the Haryana government today.
Former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda yesterday wrote a letter to Governor Kaptan Singh Solanki and sought revocation of the constitution of the commission headed by retired Delhi High Court judge SN Dhingra.
Hooda urged the Governor to “look into the matter to uphold the Constitutional values and to advise the present government not to abuse the provisions of law to harass the members of the opposition party (Congress) and further, to revoke the constitution of the commission of inquiry".
He said the commission was constituted "contrary to established rules and norms, without due cabinet approval and it was prompted by malice and political considerations."
The commission was to probe transfer or disposal of land, allegations of private enrichment, ineligibility of beneficiaries under the rules and other connected matters, bringing Vadras company’s land deal under the scanner.
On June 17, the BJP government in Haryana had extended the term of the Justice SN Dhingra Commission till June 30.
