New Delhi, May 16

The Himachal Pradesh Police has registered an FIR against an unidentified person for uploading a misleading post about the property of Miraya Vadra, the daughter of Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and businessman Robert Vadra.

The accused under the name of Anoop Verma claimed in a pot on X that Miraya owns property worth Rs 3,000 crore.

The case has been lodged on a complaint filed by Congress member Pramod Gupta who alleged that Verma has tweeted a misleading, false and baseless post against Miraya.

Gupta, in his complaint stated that the post was made during the ongoing parliamentary elections to sow confusion and incite hatred towards the Congress party among the public. The post has hurt the reputation of Sonia Gandhi and Priyanka Vadra and “created anger among the Congress workers of Himachal Pradesh and general public due to which public peace could be disturbed.

The police have booked him under sections 153 (provocation for riots), 469 (forgery), 500 (defamation) and 505 (inciting a community or persons for offence against any other community) of IPC.
