FIR registered against Robert Vadra on Saturday

New Delhi/Chandigarh: An FIR has been registered against Congress chief Rahul Gandhi's brother-in-law and Priyanka Gandhi's husband, Robert Vadra on Saturday in the matter of an alleged land scam in Haryana's Gurugram.
Former chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda has also been named in the FIR. The alleged land scam occurred during Honda's regime. Real estate giant DLF's name is in the FIR too.
MyNation has the first access on the FIR copy.
Chief minister, Manohar Lal's office, has also confirmed the development to MyNation.
The matter pertained to a plot of land in Gurugram Sector-83 where the department of town and country planning had granted licences for developing commercial colonies to some entities.
The controversy is pivoted around a 3.5-acre land in Shikohpur which Vadra's company Skylight Hospitality had purchased it for just Rs 7.5 crore in 2008 and where Haryana's town planning department had issued a letter of intent to populate a commercial colony on 2.71 acres. Incidentally, the town and country planning department was then headed by the former CM Hooda.
In 2008 Vadra had sold the land to real estate developer DLF for Rs 58 crore. Later, IAS officer Ashok Khemka had cancelled the mutation of this land in his capacity as the director general of land consolidation. Owing to this he had been abruptly transferred.
Incidentally, Sonia Gandhi along with daughter Priyanka and Vadra are camping in Goa since yesterday on a personal tour.
