He raised question on how Khanna being ex-officio chairman of DDA offered bailout package for Games village developer Emmar MGF. Opposition Congress and BJP separately opposed ruling BJD`s statement against alleged corruption relating to CWG.
"BJD should look at its actions relating to mining, coal and Vedanta University land scam before raising fingers at others," BJP legislature party leader K V Singhdeo said. Demanding return of Lord Jagannath`s land given to Vedanta University project, Singhdeo said though this house had discussed different scams, no action had been taken.
Congress member N K Das accused the ruling BJD of being involved in mega scams like mining, coal and dal. "BJD is number one in scams," Das stated.
