Chandigarh, May 9: Former Harya chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda on Monday defended his government’s decision to re-allot prime land in Sector 6 of Panchkula to Congress-linked Associated Jourls Limited (AJL). The senior Congress leader also accused the Indian tiol Lok Dal (INLD) of acting like a “sahyogi dal” (alliance partner) of the ruling Bharatiya Jata Party (BJP) rather than playing the role of the opposition party. “There is nothing wrong in the decision to re-allot land to AJL. There was no loss to the government or any agency. The Harya Urban Development Authority (HUDA) is a ‘no-profit-no-loss’ organisation,” Hooda told mediapersons here on Monday. On May 5, the vigilance bureau registered a case of cheating, breach of trust and corruption against Hooda, who was also the HUDA chairman in his capacity as the state’s chief minister. Officials of HUDA and office-bearers of AJL — the promoters of ‘The tiol Herald’ newspaper — were also charged with illegal re-allotment of the plot to the AJL in 2005. (IANS)
