Minister Vijay Shah has now chosen to back Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya's remarks targeting the Leader of the Opposition, Rahul Gandhi and his sister Priyanka Gandhi. Shah brought up the statements made by the minister regarding the siblings' affectionate behaviour at an event in Khandwa.

The controversy began when Vijayavargiya criticised Rahul Gandhi for kissing his sister during public appearances. He claimed that the gesture was of “foreign values” and not part of Indian traditions, NDTV reported. “Who among you kisses your young sisters or daughters in public? This is a lack of values, brought up abroad," he said at an event. His comments were seen as a dig at Rahul Gandhi, who is often photographed being affectionate with his sister Priyanka.
