Share The Knowledge
NEW DELHI: Congress president Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra and India Against Corruption members on Monday sparred on online social media after Vadra posted a contemptuous message about the anti-corruption activism in the country.
Vadra wrote on his Facebook page: "Mango people in banana republic."
The Facebook status update comes two days after the Indian Against Corruption (IAC), a newly formed political party, alleged that the son-in-law of the country's ruling party chief Sonia Gandhi had indulged in real-estate corruption.
Lawyer Prashant Bhushan and activist Arvind Kejriwal on Friday alleged that Vadra had received interest free loan from DLF and purchased real estate property at throw away prices. Both Vadra and DLF have denied the allegations.
On Monday, soon after Vadra posted his Facebook status, IAC member Kumar Vishwas demanded an apology from him.
"Vadra's mother-in-law has been ruling the country so he should explain why India is being called a "banana republic," Vishwas said. -timesofindia
