Digital Desk: Days after the Haryana government told Punjab and Haryana High Court that no regulations were broken in the transfer of land by Robert Vadra's firm to realty behemoth DLF, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra's husband, in a detailed Facebook post stated he was "happy to see a ray of hope."

"I had always and have always worked honestly and evolved with hard work and times… But false accusations from the BJP never stopped. Their agencies raided my companies even breaking walls assuming things were hidden in them! They questioned me for days, sent 100’s of notices, made illegal tax demands,else they would attach my assets and properties, took away over 20,000 documents and continue to send tax notice after notice since more than a decade…I continue to cooperate fully and provide all the information asked of me even though I know the truth." Vadra wrote in the post, sharing screenshots of news articles.

"We have always adhered to legitimate methods of conducting business and paying all taxes. I am happy to see a ray of hope in the report given by the Haryana government to the court clearing that there were no wrong doings in my business transactions. It’s been many years, of dealing with false accusations and losing many work relations and being battered by government’s incorrect informations and media propaganda carrying it," he added.

Further he added, "I do hope this does not happen to anyone else… a vindictive method of politics is toxic for the country."

The Haryana government informed the Punjab and Haryana High Court on Wednesday that Vadra's Skylight Hospitality did not break any rules or regulations in transferring land to DLF. However, the Haryana Police is investigating the record of money transactions that occurred during the claimed transaction. 

The probe was linked to an FIR filed in Gurugram in September 2018 against former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, Vadra, and others. However, the Haryana Police is investigating the record of money transactions that occurred during the claimed deals.

The FIR was lodged by Surinder Sharma, a Nuh resident in which he claimed irregularities in the land deals.

The Congress party, Hooda, and Vadra have always refuted any form of misconduct.
