Haryana Assembly censures Chautala for misleading house

Chandigarh, Mar 28 (UNI) The Haryana Assembly today censured former Chief Minister Om Parkash Chautala on a 1987 farm loan waiver scheme of the then state government and a similar scheme of the Central government of 1990.

A resolution censuring Mr Chautala was moved by Parliamentary Affair minister Randeep Singh Surjewala after a House Committee report on the two loan waiver schemes was tabled in the asembly.

The resolution was adopted by a voice vote after a walk out by the opposition Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) members who claimed the that the report was biased.

Mr Chautala, a sitting MLA was not present in the house.
