About Priyanka Gandhi Vadra

Priyanka Vadra (maiden name Priyanka Gandhi), daughter of Rajiv and Sonia Gandhi, belongs to the most powerful political family of India.

However, she has always maintained an ‘on the fence’ relationship to the world of politics, having campaigned for her party and her brother in Uttar Pradesh regularly. "I am very clear in my mind. Politics is not a strong pull, the people are. And I can do things for them without being in politics" she once said in an interview to BBC.
A stance, clearly modelled on her mother Sonia’s. A darling among the masses, especially in the heartland of Uttar Pradesh, she has inspired innumerable earthy Hindi slogans like “Amethi ka danka, bitiya Priyanka”. Congress activists in Amethi recently raised a virtual chorus to request Priyanka Gandhi Vadra to join active politics. But the charismatic Gandhi scion said they would have to “wait for some more time”.
Priyanka holds a Psychology degree from Delhi University and is married to Robert Vadra. They have two children, Raihan and Miraya. Widely admired by the media for her taste in fashion, she is seen as a woman who has been able to successfully straddle the world of family and politics.
Many believe that in times to come, she is likely to influence Indian politics as much (if not more) as her brother Rahul Gandhi is likely to.
