SATISH HANDA
Additional Chief Secretary Haryana State Finance Department Sanjeev Kaushal has already compiled SIT report on the basis of detail of all registrations of properties by Tehsil offices submitted by Divisional Commissioners Hisar, Ambala and Faridabd for a period since last three years as desired, whereas the detail of cases of registrations by Tehsil offices received from Divisional Commissioner Karnal, Rohtak and Gurugram has yet to be completed for onward submission to Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khatter and Home Minister Anil Vij. Information reveals, complaints of large number of embezzlements as regard registration cases in Tehsil offices were received from Divisional Commissioner Hisar, Ambala and Faridabd were made on the basis of fake documents, properties situated in unapproved colonies and without obtaining no objection certificate from municipal committee or municipal corporation and town planning office by land mafias in which between 55 to 60 employees including officers as well as staff members were found involved in the embezzlements likely to have stern action against them.
Sanjeev Kaushal told that the number of accused involved in irregularities including officers in Tehsil offices is likely to cross the figure 120 after compiling report received from Divisional Commissioners Karnal, Rohtak and Gurugram. Dushyant Chautala Deputy Chief Minister Haryana on getting large number of complaints regarding irregularities and corrupt practices in Tehsil offices had directed all six Divisional Commissioners in the state to submit detail of each and every case of registration of properties in all Tehsil offices in their division in past three years to take action against corrupt persons involved in the scam under section 7-A.
Meanwhile, rift between two senior ministers in Haryana state Dushyant Chautala and Anil Vij is going on since past sometime due to highly controversial Rs 9000 crore liquor smuggling during lock down period in Haryana state during year 2020 in which 70000 cases illicit liquor was seized by Haryana police and Excise Department when being smuggled to other states including Bihar, Gujarat, Chhatisgarh, Jharkhand, Uttarkhand and Delhi when state police registered nearly 350 FIRs including 21 FIRs registered at Sonepat during lock down period and cases against the smugglers but no action was taken for the arrest of smugglers. SIT also demanded CBI investigation in this case in their report.
Since both departments are controlled by Dushyant Chautala, SIT constituted by Home Minister in their investigation report alleged neglect by officers of police as well as excise departments responsible for huge revenue loss to Haryana state government. Information reveals, matter has reached to BJP high command New Delhi expressed unhappiness over this controversy at the times when government is facing farmers agitation in the country. According to information, Union Home Minister Amit Shah has taken up matter with Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khatter to amicably sort out the conflict between both heavy weight ministers. Needless to say, both BJP and JJP having alliance to form government in the state are dependant on each other to continue government in the state.
