Election 2019

Nowadays, Priyanka Gandhi takes her husband’s name less and my name more: Smriti Irani

Amethi | Union Minister Smriti Irani continued the ongoing feud with Priyanka Gandhi Vadra by saying that she takes her name more than her husband’s (Robert Vadra).

“She did not know my name 5 years back, now she keeps taking my name, such an accomplishment. Nowadays she takes her husband’s name less and my name more”, she told news agency ANI.

Smriti Irani is the BJP candidate once again from Amethi in Uttar Pradesh against Congress chief Rahul Gandhi.

In 2014, she had lost to Gandhi by one lakh votes.

Smriti Irani and Priyanka Gandhi have been in a vocal feud ever since Irani distributed shoes to the people in Amethi.

Gandhi, Congress General Secretary, opposed to this and said that people of Amethi are not “beggars”.

Amethi has been the stronghold of the Gandhi clan, and Rahul Gandhi has been the MP in Lok Sabha from the constituency ever since it was vacated for him by his mother Sonia Gandhi in 1999.

Sonia Gandhi has been contesting from Rae Bareli.

The Phase V of the Lok Sabha elections also saw Amethi, among others, to go to polls.
