New Delhi, (#thestates.news) Congress leader and AICC general secretary Priyanka Vadra on Tuesday
said she would vacate her government accommodation in Lodhi Estate here by
August 1 and slammed the “fake news” that she had requested more
time.
Sharing a news report which claimed that she has been allowed to stay for some
more time in her Lutyens bungalow after she sought more time to vacate, Ms
Gandhi tweeted, “This is FAKE NEWS. I have not made any such request to the
government. As per the eviction letter handed to me on the 1st of July, I will
be vacating the government accommodation at 35 Lodhi Estate by the 1st of
August.’
The Ministry of Housing and Urban Development had last week served a notice on
her to vacate the said premises before August 1 as she no longer comes under
SPG security cover.
“Consequent to withdrawal of SPG protection and grant of Z+ security cover by
MHA, which does not provide for allotment or retention of government
accommodation on security grounds to you, the allotment of type 6B house No. 35
Lodhi Estate is hereby cancelled wef July 1. One month concession period on
same rent till August 1 is allowed as per rules,” the Housing Ministry notice
had said.
