Robert Vadra says he hopes there is a conclusion in the case today
“We told the ED we were organising our documents, I am always ready to be here… I hope there’s a conclusion today. There is nothing in the case… When I speak in favor of the country, I am stopped, Rahul is stopped from speaking in the Parliament. BJP is doing it. This is a political vendetta. People love me and want me to join politics… When I express my willingness to join politics, they bring up old issues to bring me down and divert from the real issues… There is nothing in the case. I have been summoned 15 times and interrogated for more than 10 hours every time for the last 20 years. Organising 23000 documents is not easy.”
