No wrongdoing in allotment of Adarsh Society flats : Sushil Kumar Shinde

Mumbai: Union Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde on Monday dismissed allegations of corruption in the Adarsh society flats allotment .
“There have been no wrongdoings in the Adarsh case. The land belongs to Maharashtra government and it was not reserved for Kargil (war heroes),” he told reporters after inaugurating a statue of BR Ambedkar in Kandivli at a function organized by local Congress MP Sanjay Nirupam.
The Maharashtra government had rejected the findings of the two-member commission report on December 20 last year. The state government, however, partially accepted it on January 2 after Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi spoke out against the decision (to reject it).

The commission, comprising retired High Court judge Justice JA Patil and former chief secretary P Subaramanium, had accused four former chief ministers including Shinde, late Vilasrao Deshmukh, Ashok Chavan and Shivajirao Nilangekar Patil for ‘blatant violations’ of norms in the Adarsh Society matter.
