IIIT?
Priyanka should Pose
this Question to the right Person
Amba Charan Vashishth
A number of
newspapers, including the MAIL TODAY, have today (May 28) published a story
that Rahul Gandhi's sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has asked Human Resource
Development Minister Smriti Irani to explain to the people why Amethi has no
IIIT. It lookss Priyanka has posed this question to a wrong person, It is true
that Smriti Irani did contest the election to Amethi parliamentary constituency
against Rahul Gandhi last year, but she lost. Priyanka cannot be ignorant of
the fact that Amethi has been the family fiefdom which was represented by her
father Rajiv Gandh (he remained prime minister too for five years), her mother
and her brother Rahul consecutively. Rahul is representing this constituency
for the third term during which we had a Manmohan government for a decade. It
remains a mystery why does Priyanka not direct this question to her brother,
mother Sonia Gandhi and the Congress which ruled the country for so long.
On the contrary, both Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka should present to the electorate a balance-sheet of what they promised during all these years and what they fulfilled. Priyanka had been a star campaigner for her brother in the elections.
