At a press conference in Jaipur, Javadekar said the Gandhi family had no familiarity with the family of Mahatma Gandhi and Chacko’s statement reflects nothing but the “sycophancy culture” prevailing in the Congress. “For the BJP, poor family is the first family of the country...Dynasty is Congress’ culture,” Javadekar, who is the state election incharge, said.
