Priyanka Gandhi Vadra's son Rehan pays a surprise visit to Amethi

Amethi:  Rehan, the son of Priyanka Gandhi and Robert Vadra, on Tuesday paid a surprise visit to his family stronghold Amethi where he stayed overnight.

Rehan, 14, arrived in Amethi uniformed along with his friends by car, party sources said.

Following on the footsteps of his family, Rehan took a tour of the village, discussed various issues with the villagers and also feasted with them, said local residents.

He later went to the guest house of Sanjay Gandhi Hospital at Munshiganj and met people there.

His visit took the villagers by surprise as the Congress or the district administration had not provided any information on his visit.

The constituency of Amethi is represented by Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi and is also frequently visited by Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and Sonia Gandhi.

"The visit shows Amethi is important for them and the family has had an affectionate relation with people here," said a Congress worker.
