Uma's remark 'Priyanka begging with kids' invites criticism

Lucknow, Feb 16: Uma Bharti invited Congress party's criticism for her remarks against Congress President Sonia Gandhi's daughter, Priyanka Gandhi that she was "begging for votes with her two children" in Rae Bareli.

"Perhaps she has more experience of begging by donning saffron and becoming a monk. She should self-introspect. It does not suit her to do all this wearing saffron....there is no dignity. Such talks do not suit her stature," said Renuka Chowdhary, party spokesperson.

Uma Bharati had earlier chided Priyanka Gandhi by saying that she was begging with her children for votes in Rae Bareli for the UP assembly elections. [Read: Priyanka Gandhi divides BJP minister, Uma Bharti]

"Rahul calls us beggar because he doesn't understand the difference between beggars and labourers. Labourers work hard to earn money. Begging is what Priyanka is doing with her two children," she had said.
