We had reported earlier that posters of Robert Vadra have appeared outside Congress headquarters welcoming his wife and Rahul Gandhi’s sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra formally in the party. As per reports, the posters were later removed from AICC headquarters by the NDMC.
Reacting to the posters, another Congress leader Sanjay Singh took a jibe on PM Modi and said that it is unfortunate for PM Modi and his estranged wife that they do not put posters up together.

Giving a clean chit to Vadra, Singh added that Vadra’s name is dragged by BJP without any proof and the way Vadra is facing the ED today, Modi will face the same tomorrow.
Meanwhile, Vadra has been summoned by the Enforcement Directorate today in connection to the money laundering case and dubious land deal cases. He had applied for anticipatory bail in the court earlier this month after a fresh money laundering case was filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). The case filed under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) against Skylight Hospitality firm owned by Vadra. The case is in relation to alleged financial irregularities in land deals in Gurgaon, Haryana in 2008.
