Business tycoon Robert Vadra, associated with the influential Gandhi family, faced questioning by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday concerning a Haryana land deal from 2008, tethered to allegations of money laundering. Official sources confirmed the development.

Vadra, brother-in-law to Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi, has labeled the repeated summons as 'political vendetta.' He criticized the manipulation of investigative agencies for political leverage while emphasizing his ongoing cooperation and the need for a resolution to the decade-old cases.
