The recommendations

If today Haryana Opposition Indian National Lok Dal (INLD)
party is going all the way to 'support' Khemka to launch an
attack on the Congress, then it was Congress which had come
out to 'save' the officer from INLD wrath in 2004 when OP
Chautala was the chief minister.
Khemka, during his stint as director of secondary education
department in September 2004, had put his foot down and
refused to entertain the transfers of teachers recommended by
the chief minister's office.
The recommendations were made by the CMO despite a blanket
ban on teachers' transfers.
Khemka had not only faced transfer within seven days of his
appointment but also had to go without an official car and at
that time Congress, taking Khemka's side, had blasted
Chautala for "harassing an honest officer."
"Khemka did not care for any recommendation for transfer, not
even from the CMO," said an INLD leader.
Unwilling to be identified, a Congress leader said, "Khemka
had provided us a tool to fight the Chautalas with. We were
looking for an issue and there he was raising hell."
Congress had again supported Khemka the same year when he had
opposed the acquisition of Nathupur panchayat land worth
crores of rupees in Gurgaon district by Chautala government
for a private builder for a paltry sum.
Meanwhile, Chautala on Wednesday during a press conference in
Jalandhar praised Khemka but when asked why did he transfer
the officer eight times during his tenure as CM from 1999 to
2004, Chautala said no officer was shifted with mala fide
intention during his tenure.
