Rahul Gandhi and other senior Congress leaders were detained while protesting against Enforcement Directorate (ED) summons to party president Sonia Gandhi in the National Herald money laundering case.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and other senior party leaders were detained after leading the protest march today (July 26) against Enforcement Directorate (ED) summons to party president Sonia Gandhi in the National Herald money laundering case. Congress chief Sonia Gandhi reached the ED office again today for the second round of questioning in the case.
As the Congress leaders protested outside Parliament, the Delhi police detained some of the party leaders, including KC Venugopal, Manickam Tagore, Ranjeet Ranjan, Imran Pratapgarhi and K Suresh.
Calling out the government, the Congress leader took to Twitter and wrote, “Look at the dictatorship, cannot hold peaceful demonstrations, and cannot discuss inflation and unemployment.”
The Congress leaders and MPs were marching to Vijay Chowk in protest against ED questioning of party’s interim president Sonia Gandhi in National Herald case.
Congress General Secretary KC Venugopal on Tuesday issued a letter requesting all the Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) to hold a peaceful Satyagraha at any Gandhi statue or at any place of historical importance in their respective capital city.
The Congress chief was earlier questioned by the financial probe agency on July 21 for nearly three hours in connection with the alleged money laundering case related to the National Herald newspaper.
