Patna: Bihar minister Vinod Narayan Jha on Friday, in a statement that could possibly stir up a controversy, called Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi as "a very beautiful face" who had no political achievement to her credit.
The remark comes days after the entry of Priyanka Gandhi into active politics.

This move comes ahead of the forthcoming 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
The 47-year-old is set to take charge as the AICC General Secretary from the first week of February, Congress Party said.
