National Herald Corruption Case: Rahul Gandhi's appearance tomorrow, BJP launches attack

In protest of the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) summoning Congress president Sonia Gandhi and her son Rahul Gandhi to appear before it, Congress leaders and workers on Monday will stage Dharna in front of ED office in Ahmedabad.

Both the leaders have been issued summons in connection with the National Herald issue. Rahul Gandhi will appear before the ED officials on Monday.

Party's national spokesperson Pawan Khera said, "National Herald was passing through financial crisis, so from 2002 to 2011, Congress party used Rs 90 crore fund for the payment of salaries of employees, retired employees, electricity bills, and taxes, which BJP and its associates and followers are terming it as an offence. Even the Election Commission has given it clean chit."
