Khattar said it was Hooda himself who had, during the Vidhan Sabha session, demanded that irregularities committed in any area should be investigated in a fair manner and action should be taken against the guilty.
Hooda had even said that if found guilty, action should be taken against him as well, Khattar said.
The Haryana CM was reacting to Hooda's accusation that state government was following a policy of 'badla'.
He said the BJP was not acting out of a feeling of revenge, adding that Hooda was now becoming restless.
State government had announced a zero-tolerance policy for corruption and staying true to its promise, was investigating such issues without bias, he said adding that action would be taken against those indulging in corrupt practices, regardless of their political affiliation.
Replying to a question over allotment of plots in Gurgaon on first come, first served basis, he said Dhingra Commission has been constituted to investigate the issue and whosoever would be found guilty in the investigation, would face stern action.
