The Congress has termed the allegations against the party President Mrs Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra as baseless and un-substantiated. Talking to reporters, party spokesperson Rashid Alvi said, the charges of social activists Arvind Kejrival and Prashant Bhusan against Mr. Vadra are politically motivated. He was reacting to the allegations made by the activists at a joint press conference in New Delhi that Vadra had bought property worth crores of rupees between 2007 and 2010 with an unsecured interest free loan of 65 crore rupees given by DLF. BJP spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad has demanded an inquiry into the allegations.

Meanwhile, DLF has clarified that the business dealings with Robert Vadra were completely transparent.
