A couple of days before the elections in Rajasthan, some more pages of the alleged Red Diary have come to light which mention Congress leader Sonia Gandhi's 'brother'.
Former minister in the Gehlot government, Rajendra Singh Gudha revealed that the Red Diary mentions that Sonia Gandhi's brother also attended the wedding event of the hotel Shiv Vilas owner's son in Jaipur, ABP News reported.
He further revealed that the Chief Minister's OSD Shashikant Sharma was asked to fix Ashok Gehlot's meeting with the alleged brother of Sonia Gandhi. He questioned that while Sonia Gandhi is not known to have any brother, who is this brother? He suggested that he might be a broker.
Making another revelation, Gudha accused Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot of helping a person associated with Priyanka Gandhi who fled to Rajasthan to escape police and was accommodated in a hotel.
Gudha said that this diary has solid evidence of corruption. He said that it exposes how the supposedly popular CM Gehlot engaged in unethical activities, deceiving the people of Rajasthan.
Notably, the Red Diary has found mentions in political rallies where BJP called it a "symbol of corruption", while Gehlot demanded a probe into it calling it a conspiracy.
