Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad also rubbished the vendetta charge against the government, saying, "We don't want to target anyone and nor do we want to usher vendetta against anyone. This is a suggestion for action for Haryana government."
He, however, alleged there was a common pattern in the land deals of Robert Vadra and Priyanka Gandhi, and the only inference one can derive was that with the power Vadra exercised with the then government and speedy manner in which land usage was changed by bypassing norms, "was designed to allow a situation of windfall gains".
Prasad said the transactions indicated a "new business model" and needed to be investigated.
The commission had submitted its 182-page report to chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar on August 31, 2016. The lawyer of Robert Vadra and Skylight Hospitality has claimed they had committed no wrong and that no laws were violated.
Vadra's wife Priyanka Gandhi had on Thursday released a statement, saying her finances had nothing to do with those of her husband's or his company Skylight Hospitality, which had made controversial land deals with realty major DLF.
The statement from Priyanka's office came after a query was made to Vadra asking whether a portion of the money he had received from the DLF was used by his wife to buy properties in Faridabad in Haryana.
