Robert Vadra today deleted his Facebook account after a furore over his new status message that read, "Mango people in a banana republic," in an apparent dig at India Against Corruption (IAC) member Arvind Kejriwal and senior Supreme Court lawyer Prashant Bhushan, who on Friday, levelled allegations of corruption against him. Before deleting his account, Vadra reportedly wrote on his page, "Obviously it seems I have people on my Facebook account who do not have a sense of humour. Everything I write becomes news and further debates on television?? I have decided to delete my account."
Vadra's decision of deleting Facebook account might have brought relief to Congress President Sonia Gandhi who has been facing criticism for her son-in-law's alleged involvement in corruption case. The UPA Chairperson earlier had asked her party men to defend Vadra. Kejriwal earlier on Friday, Oct 5 claimed that Vadra was provided an interest-free unsecured loan worth Rs 65 crore by real estate firm DLF with which Vadra allegedly bought property worth Rs 300 crore from the DLF itself.
