He also hit out at the prevalent dynasty politics in the country and said that the Congress had used the INS Viraat as a ‘personal taxi’ when late Rajiv Gandhi was prime minister in 1987.

Another roadshow she participated in was in support of South Delhi Congress candidate Vijender Singh. “Their situation is like those children who don’t do their homework and come to school.
