BJP attacks Vadra's biz model

Last Updated 19 April 2014, 20:08 IST

The BJP has raised its pitch on Robert Vadra issue. All of its top leaders who are canvassing in different parts of the country made it a point to attack Gandhi family by raising controversial business practices of Priyanka Gandhi’s husband.

The list includes prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, party president Rajnath Singh and Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha, Arun Jaitley.

A Wall Street Journal Article on Vadra which has analysed his huge earning in a short period was made the basis of the criticism.

While addressing a rally at Katihar in Bihar, Modi attacked the family for “ the model which includes mother, son, son-in-law and daughter”.

According to agency reports, Modi said, “It's the magical effect of RSVP model of development that a person's earning rises from Rs one lakh to Rs 400 crore in five years.”
He decoded the model as “Rahul, Sonia, Vadra and Priyanka model.”

Apparently, BJP’s prime ministerial candidate was retorting to Rahul Gandhi’s criticism of Gujarat model.

Senior leader and Lok Sabha candidate in Amritsar, Arun Jaitley on Saturday wrote on his blog that the Vadra business model requires the research paper to be prepared by a key business analyst.

“Congratulations to Mr. Robert Vadra. He has made it to the Wall Street Journal. The Vadra business model requires the research paper to be prepared by a key business analyst,” said Jaitley.

“Start a business without any investment. Investment will flow as loans and advances which is a synonym for political equity. Use these loans to buy property at fraction of the market cost,” he said.

 “So far this business model has raised only eyebrows. It is time it raises serious questions. That is what the Wall Street Journal has done,” Jaitley added.
