New Delhi: Robert Vadra, husband of Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and a prominent businessman, is now poised to enter politics. In a recent interview, Vadra explicitly signaled his readiness to seriously consider a political career if the Congress party offers him a position of responsibility. He stated his desire to serve the country with his family's blessings and his willingness to play a role in politics if deemed appropriate by the party.
Vadra's statement has created a stir in political circles. However, the Congress party has yet to issue any official response.
"Ready if the party wants" – Robert Vadra
In an interview with the media, Robert Vadra clarified that his connection to politics is not new, but rather a longstanding relationship. He said, "I am part of the Gandhi family, and politics has always been around me. If the Congress party shows faith in me, I am ready to join active politics with my family's blessings."
Learning the ropes from Priyanka and Rahul
Robert Vadra explained that he has observed politics closely, particularly through Priyanka Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi. He praised Priyanka's hard work and dedication, saying, "I first told Priyanka that I wanted to see her in Parliament, and today she's there. I have learned a lot from her."
Name dragged into elections repeatedly: Vadra
Vadra also revealed that various political parties have used his name during elections over the past few years. He stated, "My name comes up in discussions during every election, even if I am not actively involved." Robert Vadra believes that the opposition's role is crucial for strengthening India's democratic system.
He emphasized the need to fight to maintain a secular India. "A b and sensible opposition is needed in Parliament, and I am prepared to shoulder that responsibility," he said. Vadra commended the government for the arrest of Mehul Choksi but added that arrest alone is insufficient. He stressed the importance of recovering the embezzled funds and compensating those who suffered losses.
