Asked if the BJP would take action against Congress president Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra if voted to power, senior party leader M. Venkaiah Naidu Thursday refused to commit to any such action.

Vadra has been accused of involvement in dubious land deals in Gurgaon, an upscale Haryana district which is part of the National Capital Region.

Naidu, who is in Goa on a two-day visit, was speaking to reporters at the state BJP headquarters ahead of a stock-taking meeting related to the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

In response to a query from a reporter, he said: "Our priority is first controlling prices, stopping corruption. We don't have anything against any one person."
