Sporting her dimple-deep cheek smile, Ms Priyanka was seen interacting with number of leaders from Uttar Pradesh.In the past there have been speculation about the role Priyanka Gandhi would play in the Congress party.However, she has kept herself at a safe distance from active politics even as from time to time her husband Robert Vadra has been subjected to criticism and attack in various corruption charges.(UNI)
