Wanted: BJP leader announces Rs 1 lakh bounty for Rahul's whereabouts
Rahul Gandhi announced on Twitter early this week that he would be away for a few days.
Bhopal: Madhya Pradesh BJP spokesman Bijendra Singh Sisodia on Thursday sparked a fresh debate by announcing a reward of Rs 1 lakh to those who could provide whereabouts of AICC vice-president Rahul Gandhi, who is currently on a holiday abroad.
“I will award the bounty from my own pocket to those who can provide clues to ascertain whereabouts of Mr Gandhi, who is currently on a foreign tour,” Sisodia said in a press release issued in Bhopal.

Raising questions on Mr Gandhi’s “penchant” for going on foreign tours unannounced, Sisodia recalled the Congress heir-apparent had visited South-East Asian countries a few months ago “on an introspection mission”, as was described by the Congress then.
The Congress had also announced Rahul Gandhi had gone on a foreign tour to 'recharge' himself, he added.
