LUCKNOW: Annoyed over rumours about her proposed marriage to Congress president Rahul Gandhi , MLA from Rae Bareli Sadar Aditi Singh expressed her anger over the link-up on Sunday."I am really saddened by such baseless rumours being spread. Rahulji is like an elder brother to me. I ritualistically tie rakhi on his wrist. Those behind the link-up are absolutely wrong and aim to malign my image as also that of Rahul Gandhiji," the Congress MLA told TOI.On who could be behind the rumours and what could be their intention, Aditi said, "Talk of my marriage with Rahul Gandhi is a propaganda in the wake of the Karnataka elections. The intention appears to be to distract the Congress leadership and workers toiling in Karnataka. It is anyone's guess who could be behind it."Read this story in MarathiPhotographs showing Rahul with Aditi, and their families began circulating on social media on Saturday.
