Haven't grabbed land, will follow govt rules: Hema

Amid controversy over the allotment of a plot to actor-turned-politician Hema Malini for a dance institute at a throw-away price, she claimed that she has "not grabbed" the land and will abide by the government's rules regarding its purchase.

The Congress had earlier turned up the heat on the BJP-led government for the allotment of land at Ambivali in suburban Andheri to Malini's Natyavihar Kalakendra Charity Trust at a throw-away price of Rs 70,000. "I have not paid anything as of now. I will follow all the rules and regulations of the government. Why speculate the price when I don't know myself how much I have to pay...whatever will be the cost I will pay it," she said.
