Posters welcoming Robert Vadra to contest the upcoming Lok Sabha polls from Moradabad constituency were seen in the Uttar Pradesh city on Monday, a day after he hinted at the possibility of joining politics in a Facebook post.
"Robert Vadra Ji, you are welcome to contest the election from the Moradabad Lok Sabha constituency," the posters read.
Vadra, the brother-in-law of Congress president Rahul Gandhi, has hinted at joining politics, a month after his wife Priyanka Gandhi made her debut in active politics and was appointed a general secretary in-charge of Uttar Pradesh East in the party.
In a Facebook post, Vadra said, "All these years of experience and learning cannot be just wasted and should be put to better use...Once all these accusations and allegations are over, I feel I should dedicate a larger role in serving the people."
