In a tweet, Irani late on Monday posted, "Eagerly awaiting Rahul Ji's poetic explanation for #VadraTicketGate."

Earlier, a news channel claimed that Bhandari had booked business-class tickets for Vadra in 2012.

The news channel alleged, "The bookings were made through a travel agent Vishal Bajpai via International Travel Home. The tickers were first sent to Bhandari, who then sent it across to Robert Vadra."

It has also been alleged that the tickets bought by Bhandari for Vadra were worth over Rs 10 lakhs.
