Robert Vadra today dismissed allegations of fraudulent land deals against him, saying they were false and that he will "always be used for political gains".
"Almost a decade of governments false and baseless accusations on me! They cannot prove anything without proof, and there is nothing there to prove...
"I will always be used for political gains, I know ... But I will walk with my head held high, as in time and with the truth which will conquer incorrect perceptions, that are created about me", the son-in-law of Congress President Sonia Gandhi said in a Facebook post.
Vadra has recently been issued a notice by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for his alleged involvement in a land scam in Bikaner.
Justice SN Dhingra Commission, which was set up to probe land deals in Gurgaon, including one between realty major DLF and Vadra's Skylight Hospitality, has informed the Haryana government that investigations have been completed and it is set to submit its report.
The commission was set up by the BJP-led M L Khattar government last year.
