“People from Haryana requesting me to contest” : Robert Vadra hints at joining politics

New Delhi : Congress National General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra’s husband, Robert Vadra, has hinted about a political debut in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

Stating that while he has attempted to stay away from politics he has not ruled out entering the electoral fray if the party feels he can bring about a change. If given a chance, he said he would pick Moradabad and Haryana to contest from.


“I have stayed away from politics, but different political parties wanted to pull me into politics and used tactics to trouble me for being connected to the Gandhi family. I have always been treated as a political tool and a soft target or hard target whenever there is an election,” Vadra said.


The son-in-law of Congress Parliamentary Party Chairperson Sonia Gandhi said he felt he could give such critics a better response politically as an MP.


“People have felt that I should give them an answer, not as a businessman but as an MP inside the Parliament politically,” he said.


“The country wants me to be in active politics. If the Congress party feels that I can bring a change, I will come into active politics. It is not necessary that I will contest from Amethi. People from Moradabad and Haryana are also requesting me to contest from their constituency,” Vadra said
