“I have always respected your qualities of compassion,empathy and sincerity. Today, Priyanka, I respect you more for standing up against atrocities on villagers,” Robert Vadra tweeted. “You were there to console them, when government refused to listen to wails of the families. Priyanka, do what is right for the nation.”

Priyanka Gandhi was stopped from going to Sonbhadra and detained on Friday. She spent the night at the guesthouse, turning down all requests of the local administration to return without meeting the families of the clash victims.

Gandhi consoled the aggrieved family members while sharing their sorrows. She wiped the tears of the family members and also offered water to them. Some of them who came to meet her also clicked photos to treasure the moment.

In a late-night tweet, she had said she is ready to go to jail if she is not allowed to go ahead.
