— ANI (@ANI) 1535815042000Earlier in February, Hooda and 33 others were chargesheeted by the CBI in a case of alleged corruption in Manesar land deals worth over Rs 1,500 crore.
That chargesheet related to land transactions in Manesar, Naurangpur and Lakhnoula villages of Gurgaon.
The Bharatiya Janata Party had made the land deals a major poll issue in 2014, alleging that Vadra benefited through questionable land use permissions granted by the earlier Congress government in the state led by Hooda.
In the FIR lodged Saturday, the complainant alleged that Vadra's Skylight Hospitality Pvt Ltd purchased 3.5 acre of land in Gurgaon's Sector 83 from Onkareshwar Properties at a price of Rs 7.50 crore in 2008, when Hooda was chief minister and also held the portfolio of Town and County Planning Department.
Later, Skylight Hospitality sold this land to realty major DLF for Rs 58 crore, after procuring commercial licence for the development of the colony with Hooda's influence, the complainant alleged.
He also alleged that 350 acres of land was allotted to DLF at Wazirabad in Gurgaon in violation of rules which made the realty major gain Rs 5,000 crore.
Reacting to the FIR, BJP leader Jawahar Yadav said that it (FIR) is part of his party's commitment to fight corruption. “It is not a personal fight, this is our collective fight against corruption. BJP government in state and centre does not tolerate corruption at any cost," he said.
The Manohar Lal Khattar-led BJP government had set up a commission in 2015 to probe into the licences given by the earlier Hooda-led Congress government for the development of housing colonies and commercial complexes in four Gurgaon villages.
The BJP had made the land deals during Congress regime a major poll issue in 2014, targeting Robert Vadra.
