Opposition leader in the Assembly Vijay Wadettiwar accused the government of handing prime land parcels in Mumbai to Adani. He alleged that the secretary was transferred because he opposed transferring a prized 8.5 hectares of Kurla land owned by the Dairy Development Department for only 25 per cent of the ready reckoner rates.
Wadettiwar said in the Assembly that the Kurla land was valued at Rs 20,000 crore, yet it was given to the private company for a fraction of its worth. Raising the issue in the Assembly on Thursday, he asked the government to explain its decision to hand the dairyland to Adani. “Explain this to the House. The land transfer decision was cleared in one day,” he said, accusing the government of corruption.
