Posters in UP urge Robert Vadra to contest polls from Moradabad

MORADABAD: Several posters have come up in Moradabad district requesting businessman and Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi's husband Robert Vadra to contest elections from the Lok Sabha constituency.
"Robert Vadra ji, you are welcome to contest Lok Sabha elections from Moradabad," read the posters. According to these posters, the request has been made by Moradabad's youth wing of Congress, but the party leaders have denied it.

Party leaders say there is no report of Vadra contesting polls from here and the posters have come up as a part of conspiracy. Vadra is a native of Moradabad.
Senior Congress leader and member of All India Congress Committee, Rizwan Qureshi, said, "The posters have been put up in the city as part of political conspiracy."
Rajesh Pal of Congress' youth wing said, "We have received no information from party that Vadra ji will contest polls from Moradabad. We will support the candidate who will get ticket from party. People who are against Congress are behind these posters."

The posters have come up a day after Vadra hinted that he might enter politics in a Facebook post. He had posted on Facebook: "The years n months that I spent campaigning n working in different parts of the country, but mainly in UP, gave me a feeling to do more for the people n make smaller changes possible by me, in their areas n when they got to know me, the genuine love, affection n respect I earned was humbling. All these years of experience n learning cannot be just wasted and should be put to better use... once all these accusations n allegations are over, I feel I should dedicate a larger role in serving the people (sic)."
