Reacting strongly to INLD leader Abhay Chautala’s remarks against former Chief Minister and Leader of Opposition Bhupinder Hooda that he had hatched a conspiracy against his father and former CM Om Prakash Chautala, five Congress MLAs on Sunday lambasted Abhay stating that those living in glass houses should not throw stones at others.
In a joint statement, the MLAs, including Raghuveer Kadyan, Geeta Bhukkal, Aftab Ahmed, Rao Dan Singh and Bharat Bhushan Batra, also asked Abhay several questions pertaining to the jail sentence to his father in the JBT recruitment case.
“From preparing the lists of selected candidates to the case being handed over to the CBI for investigation, all developments in the case had happened during the tenure of Chautala government in Haryana. Despite all this, Abhay is blaming Hooda just to gain political mileage. When he will stop lying,” they questioned.
Giving advice to Abhay, the Congress MLAs said instead of lying, he should dare to speak the truth in front of the public. The entire state knows that Hooda had never indulged in political vendetta and he ensured overall development of the state during his two stints as Chief Minister.
