He has also stated that not even a single sector of HUDA had been floated during this period, whereas the Parliamentary Affairs Minister, Sh. Randeep Singh Surjewala had pointed out the correct factual position but Sh. Om PrakaSh.Chautala again asserted that neither even a singal sector HUDA was floated nor a single acre of land was acquired by HUDA from, 2005 till date. By doing so Sh.

He further stated that a four acres chunk of land out of this acquired land has been auctioned for Rs. 290 crore. He consequently alleged loss to the exchequer and fraud on account thereof. He further stated that land of farmers was acquired in the name of ‘SEZ’ and they were told that they will be given bonus/annuity of Rs. 10,000/- per acre per year. He further stated that even a rupee has not been paid till date to any farmer by way of such bonus annuity. Whereas the above statement of Sh. Om PrakaSh.Chautala is factually and absolutely incorrect. Sh. Om PrakaSh.Chautala has made a false, misleading and incorrect statement in the House on both the afore-stated subjects. Sh. Om PrakaSh.Chautala made this statement willfully, deliberately and knowingly to mislead this august House.

    Chautala to continue as party chief, contest polls : INLD By : INVC Team Published On : 19 Jan, 2013 03:35 PM IST Sukhjeevan Sharma,, INVC,, Panchkula,, INLD announced that Om Parkash Chautala would continue to lead the party and also contest Haryana Assembly elections due in 2014, despite his conviction by a Delhi court in a case of illegal recruitment of over 3,000 junior basic trained teachers in the state. 78-year-old Chautala and his son Ajay would contest the state polls, Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) state President Ashok Arora told reporters. Former Haryana Chief Minister Om Prakash Chautala, his MLA son Ajay Chautala and 53 others including two IAS officers were convicted on corruption and other charges by a Delhi court for illegally recruiting 3,206 junior teachers 12 years back. “The verdict of the Delhi court is not final. The party will challenge the decision in a higher court and both will come out clean as ultimately the truth will prevail,” he said, adding that there is no bar on sitting MLAs and MPs, who have been convicted, to contest elections. Stating that the party would challenge the verdict after the quantum of sentence is announced on January 22, Arora said that INLD was fully prepared to face any situation, including what he described was a vilification campaign launched against it by Congress and the Kuldeep Bishnoi-led Haryana Janhit Congress. Arora said that the scam in the selection of teachers in 1999 – for which 53 others have been convicted along with the father-son duo – was set in motion by the then Bansi Lal-led Haryana Vikas Party (HVP) government before Chautala took over.
