Various opposition leaders including Hemant Soren attend Rahul Gandhi's Iftar party in Delhi

Former presidents Pranab Mukherjee and Pratibha Patil, ex-vice president Hamid Ansari and several opposition leaders are attending an Iftar being hosted by Congress president Rahul Gandhi today.
Gandhi has invited a host of opposition and senior party leaders to the Iftar, the first ever to be hosted by him as Congress chief.
Senior Congress and opposition party leaders are likely to attend the Iftar at a local luxury hotel here, according to sources.
Sources said leaders of all like-minded non-BJP parties, which have been holding parleys on key issues, have been invited for the event.
For Rahul Gandhi this will be the first occasion to host an Iftar after he took charge of the Congress. The party did not hold Iftar, which marks the customary breaking of the day-long fast in the holy month of Ramzan, during the past two years and its last Iftar was in 2015.
The then Congress president Sonia Gandhi had hosted the feast at that time.
The party conventionally invites leaders of all faiths to the event as also top diplomats.
