BJP alleges bribery against Vadra to target Cong in Haryana | Haryana Election News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: Firing a new salvo against Congress in front of Haryana Polls, BJP on Friday raised the alleged corruption involving Rahul Gandhi’s son-in-law Robert Vadra when the opposition party was in power in the state.
BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia alleged that the state elections were a battle between ‘Haryana ka laal (son of Haryana)’ and ‘dalaal (fixer)’ of the Gandhi family as he questioned the Congress’s silence on allegations of corruption against Vadra and the then party government led by Bhupinder Singh Hooda.He said that people have decided to elect BJP for the third consecutive term.
While Gandhi spoke about farmers’ problems, he did not say a word about his son-in-law who was “grabbing land”, Bhatia said. Hooda is just a mask and the real face of corruption is the Gandhi family, he alleged, citing dubious land deals involving Vadra.
In one case, he noted, Vadra’s firm allegedly acquired 3.5 acres of land from farmers and the then Hooda government changed the use of the land, allowing him to pocket a huge profit by selling the plot at four times the purchase price.
In another case, farmers resorted to forced sale of their land after the Congress government in the state issued a notification to acquire their land and then denotified it after a Vadra-linked developer bought their land, he alleged.
