Former Congress leader Priyanka Chaturvedi, who resigned from the party and joined Shiv Sena Friday, justified her decision to join a close ally of the BJP. Slamming the Rahul Gandhi-led party, Priyanka Chaturvedi said that she was upset over Congress' inaction against those who had misbehaved with her. Speaking about her future goals after joining Uddhav Thackeray-led party, Priyanka said that she will work towards making Shiv Sena more strong across Mumbai, Maharashtra and in the entire country. Priyanka Chaturvedi had joined Shiv Sena shortly after she sent her resignation to Congress president Rahul Gandhi Thursday. However, on being asked whether she will keep singing a song to mock the Centre, Priyanka Chaturvedi said, "...Gaana main gaate rahungi (I will keep singing song)".
