CAG report for the year 2013-14, tabled in the Haryana Assembly today, has come down heavily on the Town and Country Planning Department. "The department neither at the time of granting in-principle approval nor at the time of formal approval for transfer of licenses ensured that net profit beyond 15% of the total cost accrues to public exchequer. This enabled the developers to earn huge profits merely by selling the land while the government had to forego sizeable amount," the CAG report said. This statement by the CAG showcases how Hooda government helped, supported and colluded with Vadra to loot the state’s asset. The congress spinners have started their dirty tricks to defend the son-in-law of the first family of the Congress.

Congress dismissed the reports that CAG has found the erstwhile Congress government of Haryana granting "undue favours" to Robert Vadra's company and said "there is no such finding of wrongdoing". "Instead of proceeding to hold the previous Congress Government in Haryana guilty based on half truth, innuendos and insinuations, we must examine the facts," party spokesman Randeep Surjewala said. The facts points fingers towards congress and its first family.

Surjewala said the Accountant General of Haryana has neither indicted the previous Congress government nor Robert Vadra or Skylight Hospitality Private Limited for any violation of the Haryana Development and Regulation of Urban Areas Act, 1975 or any rules or policy. "There is no such finding of wrongdoing as is being sought to be alleged," he said.

Surjewala's reactions came on the day when the Haryana Government during the Congress regime came under attack from the Comptroller and Auditor General for granting "undue favours" to builders, including Robert Vadra's Skylight Hospitality.
