Priya Dutt denies rift over Sanjay's SP link


NEW DELHI: After the Samajwadi Party announced it is fielding actor Sanjay Dutt for Lok Sabha polls, sister and Congress MP Priya Dutt said that she was shocked and upset that Sanjay did not consult her on the move.

Expressing her disappointment, Priya said Sanjay's decision to associate with Sawajwadi Party for the Lok Sabha polls, saying "we have always been a Congress family".

"Definitely there is disappointment. We have always been a Congress family. I wish he had fought for the Congress party," Dutt, a sitting MP from northwest Mumbai seat, said.

She, however, said her brother's decision to associate with Samajwadi Party was completely an individual one and that there was no family feud over it.

"There is no family feud. Everybody is free to take a decision for himself or herself. This is Sanjay's decision and he has to take responsibility for this," she said.
