A day after Priyanka Vadra said that her cousin and BJP leader Varun Gandhi had gone "astray", party nominee from Amethi Smriti Irani asked her whether she wanted him to follow the path of 2G, 3G and coal scams.
"Does Priyanka want her brother to take the path of 2G, 3G and coal scams?...It seems that in Priyanka's view, the path of scams is right..," Irani said in reply to a question after an election meeting in Sangrampur in Amethi.
At a meeting with Congress workers in Amethi on Saturday, Priyanka appeared to ask people not to vote for the BJP leader, who is contesting from the adjacent Sultanpur Lok Sabha seat in UP. Varun is a sitting MP from Pilbhit.
"He (Varun Gandhi) is definitely from my family, he is my brother. But he has gone astray... I urge all of you to show my brother the right path," Priyanka had said.
Taking a jibe at Priyanka's husband Robert Vadra, Irani said that the people of Amethi got afraid when they got to know that 'damad' (son-in-law) was coming here too.
"They are afraid that their land might be grabbed by him (Robert)" she alleged.
About her prospects in the elections, Irani expressed confidence over her victory saying that this time in Amethi there was "Modi wave" instead that of "Gandhi family".
