"We all saw Congress president Rahul Gandhi running from pillar to post in Amethi five years back in 2014. However, the Kaamdar’s (Rahul Gandhi's) work is so bad that Naamdar (Priyanka) had to enter politics.
"Rahul did nothing for his own constituency," quipped Smriti Irani and said that Rahul should not "show the country any dreams of development and advancement.”
