After having divested joint secretary and director electronics and information technology Ashok Khemka of the charge in September for opposing the move, the commissioner and secretary of the department, Harbaksh Singh was also moved out of the department on Thursday after he refused to toe the government line. An official release said he was being replaced by special secretary finance Anuradha Gupta, incidentally Harbaksh''s a batch mate. Sources said after the state government failed to hand over the land to DLF following persistent objections raised by the IT department, which had acquired the land on behalf of the state government, principal secretary to the chief minister B D Dhalia is learnt to have advised the department to denotify the land, which would have meant that it came back into the purview of the panchayats department of which Dhalia is also financial commissioner and principal secretary. The intention apparently was, sources said, to allow DLF to acquire the land directly from the village panchayat. However, Harbaksh Singh is learnt to have put his foot down and recommended that the acquired land be handed over either to the Haryana State Industrial Development Corporation (HSIDC) or Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA) for commercial exploitation. The sources said this did not go down well with Dhalia, resulting in his exit. The alleged scandal had been exposed by Youth Congress president and AICC secretary Randeep Singh Surjewala, who in a memorandum submitted to Governor A R Kidwai had tried to prove that Chautala was involved in an effort to defraud the public exchequer of more than Rs 125 crore by seeking to hand over land to DLF at much below the market price. Surjewala had claimed that the chief minister had thrice overruled the precise recommendations/assertions of the department of electronics and information technology for imposing mandatory conditionalities and insisted on immediate handing of land to DLF for setting up a cyber city. #$üøhèeÜhxSnJ K ƒ „ âãäåW X «¬$úkPSúkPSúkPSúkPSúkPSúkPSúkPSúúúkPSúkPSúkPSúkPSúkPSúkPSúkPSúkPSgdxSn$ý 1�h°�/ °à =!°"°#� $� %° 1�h°�/ °à =!°"°#� $� %°þÿà …ŸòùOh«‘+''³Ù0d�˜¤°ÀÌØè ø , 8DLT\ässrajeshkajeajeNormalrajeshk1jeMicrosoft Word 10.0@Œ†G@XÒÂÂÄ@XÒÂÂÄ]ÇþÿÕ�՜.“—+,ù®0ôhpˆ�˜ ¨°¸À ÈÕä timesonlinee A Title
