Priyanka Gandhi Vadra Slams BJP Over Dynasty Politics
“When we talk about our ancestors, then those who criticize us talk about dynasty politics. This is not nepotism, this is a devotion towards the country that cannot be finished,” the Congress leader said while addressing a public rally in Chhattisgarh’s Bilaspur.
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra gave examples of sacrifices made by her family while referring to her grandmother Indira Gandhi and her father Rajiv Gandhi, both were former Prime Ministers of India.
“I always think that such a violent incident happened with us but our grandmother has filled our hearts with such patriotic sentiment that even for once our faith towards our country didn’t diminish. After seven years of her passing away, when I was 19, a similar incident happened with my father, still, my faith in this country didn’t diminish,” she added.
