Gandhi bahus infamous fight once again comes in public domain. This time BJP leader Maneka Gandhi questioned sister-in-law and Congress President Sonia Gandhi’s rising asset.
Quoting some media report, Menaka accused Sonia who came to India with nothing went on to become the sixth richest woman in the world.
“Congress president jab videsh se shaadi hokar aayi thi to yahan ki janata ne unhe itna pyar aur dulaar diya. Lekin aaj videshi media ke anusaar woh duniya ki chathi amir mahila hain. Aakhir kaise? (When she came to India as a newly-wed, Sonia Gandhi was showered with love and affection by the people of this country. But now, as per claims of the western media, she is the sixth richest woman in the world. How?),” Menaka asked.
“Sonia, had brought nothing as dowry, so where did all this money come from? Perhaps by gobbling funds meant for schools, roads, power projects, and by robbing the future of our children.),” she added.
Congress did not waste time to hit back at Menaka.
“It is very unfortunate to hear such statements from a person of Maneka Gandhi’s stature. She is talking about dahej in this age where it is considered a punishable offence. Soniaji stands out as an apostle of sacrifice who turned down the post of prime minister despite having the support of more than 300 MPs. On the other hand, both Maneka and her son Varun, have always indulged in divisive politics pitting Hindus against Muslims,” Congress candidate from Pilibhit Sanjay Kapoor said.
