New Delhi, Jul 4 (IBNS) The Congress on Saturday denied former Indian Premier League chief Lalit Modi's claims that party Vice President Rahul Gandhi and his brother-in-law Robert Vadra had received his hospitality.

According to media reports, Congress said neither Rahul Gandhi nor any member of the Gandhi family ever received any hospitality of Lalit Modi and all what he said are baseless.

In his latest series of tweets, Modi has asked Rahul and Vadra if they ever received any hospitality from him. He has also demanded if they had declared it to the Congress leadership.

Earlier, Modi had tweeted that he had met Congress President Sonia Gandhi's daughter Priyanka and her husband Robert Vadra at a restaurant in London.

The Congress retorted saying that Priyanka and Vadra ran into Modi in a crowded restaurant, and seeing someone at a public place was no crime.
