Priyanka Gandhi, who is on a two-day visit to her mother Sonia Gandhi's constituency, rubbished HRD Minister Smriti Irani's accusations made during her Amethi visit and said since she (Irani) is now the Education Minister, what was the hassle in setting up IIIT in Amethi as promised during UPA regime. 'She is the HRD Minister. First she should tell why she is not setting up an IIIT here. The youth are facing a lot of problems and this is her department. Why is she not looking into it,' said Priyanka Gandhi. She also said the people here are facing numerous problems and that she was 'deliberately' visiting the place. Priyanka also had an exclusive session with the women in the constituency..
