Sonia Gandhi is expected to appear before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) again on Tuesday, in connection with the National Herald money laundering case, due to which the Congress has planned on staging a “satyagraha” in Delhi headquarters.
Earlier, Sonia Gandhi was scheduled to appear before the ED on June 8. However, she had to be hospitalized due to corona infection. She then asked for a period of 4 weeks to appear before the ED. Which expires on July 22.
The ED questioned Rahul Gandhi for four days. Priyanka Gandhi also went to the ED's office with Rahul. Congress had opposed Rahul's ongoing interrogation by the ED. Former Prime Minister of India Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru started the newspaper 'National Herald'. This was considered to be the mouthpiece of the Congress. The newspaper closed shortly after. However, in 2012, Sonia and Rahul Gandhi's Young India re-acquired the rights to the newspaper. But it was not started. BJP leader Subramaniam Swamy had alleged that he had taken assets worth Rs 1,600 crore for just Rs 50 lakh. An inquiry is underway into the matter.
