Priyanka Gandhi suffering from bipolarity disease, beats up people: Subramanian Swamy

New Delhi: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Subramanian Swamy on Sunday attacked Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi and said that she suffers from bipolarity. He accused the Congress leader, who recently made her political debut, of beating up people.

"She suffers from a disease of bipolarity. She beats up people. The disease does not make her fit to live a normal life. The public should know that it is not known to anyone when she loses her mental balance," news agency ANI quoted Swami as saying.
