'Conspiracies Before Polls': Congress On ED Naming Priyanka Gandhi In Money Laundering Case

Congress leaders trained guns on BJP after Priyanka Gandhi's name was mentioned in an ED chargesheet in a money laundering case.

Congress leaders came down heavily on the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party after the Enforcement Directorate named party leader Priyanka Gandhi in a chargesheet pertaining to a money laundering case. Congress leaders alleged that the more such conspiracies will be hatched as the 2024 Lok Sabha polls approach near. 

"Look at what they'll do ahead of the elections, it's just the beginning," said Congress leader Pawan Khera, adding: " They are not doing it for the first time, they do such conspiracies when elections approach. Let them do consipracies... "

Party's Maharashtra president Nana Patole said that the saffron party was afraid of Congress. "The British were scared of Gandhi then and even today the central govt is scared of the Gandhi family. BJP is trying to diver people from the real issues..." he added. 

Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu said: "Names of several leaders are attached with ED right before Lok Sabha elections."

The ED chargesheet has mentioned her role in purchasing agricultural land measuring around 5 acres in Haryana's Faridabad from a Delhi-based real estate agent HL Pahwa in 2006 and selling the same land to him in February 2010.

According to ED, the land in Faridabad's Amipur village was purchased from Pahwa, the same agent from whom Priyanka's husband RObert Vadra also purchased three pieces of land measuring 334 kanals (40.08 acres) in Amipur from 2005-05 and sold the same land to him in December 2010. 

An earlier chargesheet filed by the enforcement agency also named Robert Vadra in connection with the case.
