The Bharatiya Janata Party on Thursday welcomed Priyanka Gandhi Vadra to electoral politics with a jibe at the net worth of her husband Robert Vadra - as submitted in her election affidavit - and threw in a swipe at the "fake Gandhis". Neither Ms Gandhi Vadra nor the Congress has responded so far but Mr Vadra has, and has accused the BJP of trying to "(divert) peoples' attention from real issues".
The BJP's Gaurav Bhatia labelled Ms Gandhi Vadra's election affidavit - in which she declared her assets and liabilities, as well as that of her husband - a "confession of corruption", claiming the net worth of Mr Vadra was far lower than demands made of him by the Income Tax Department.
