Meanwhile, the controversy over alleged land deals involving Robert Vadra took a new turn with senior Haryana IAS officer Ashok Khemka cancelling the sale of over three acre land to realty major DLF.

Significantly, this was done on the last day of Khemka's posting as Director General of Land Consolidation and Land Records-cum-Inspector-General of Registration yesterday

A 1991-batch IAS officer, Khemka ordered the mutation of 3.5 acre plot of land in Manesar-Shikohpur that Vadra had sold to DLF for Rs 58 crore.
