New Delhi Dated 28th December 2020 Monday

On the one hand, today, Monday, December 28, was the founding day of the Congress and on the other hand, the peasant movement was gaining momentum in the country. At such a sensitive time, the question of why senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi suddenly embarked on a foreign trip came up in political circles.

Even once before, suddenly Rahul Gandhi was out of the country for a long time. Today, for the first time on the founding day of the Congress, a non-Gandhi leader hoisted the party's flag. However, speaking about Rahul Gandhi's absence and defending Rahul, Congress general secretary KC Venugopal told the media that Rahul had gone to meet his grandmother (Sonia Gandhi's mother). What's wrong with that? "Anyone can go to meet their relatives," Venugopal said.

Venugopal said that the factors that want to target Rahul Gandhi have always been doing so. He asked if anyone would be surprised if someone else went abroad to meet their relatives in this way. Everyone has the right to personal travel in this way. There is nothing wrong with that. The BJP is only seen criticizing Rahul Gandhi.

While living abroad, Rahul greeted the Congress party on its founding day. On Sunday, Rahul left for a foreign trip. "Congress is committed to speaking out in the interest of the country. Today, on the founding day of the Congress, we reiterate our commitment to truth and equality," Rahul wrote on Twitter. Jayahind.

In Rahul's absence, the party's flag was hoisted at the Congress office in the capital New Delhi this morning. In Rahul's absence, senior party leader AK Antony waved the flag. The party's acting president Sonia Gandhi congratulated the party leaders and workers through a video clip. "Happy birthday to all the beloved Congress workers," Sonia said in the message. From the time of freedom struggle till today, the Congress has constantly fought for the values ​​of patriotism, fearlessness, selfless public service, communal brotherhood, unity and integrity.

In Rahul's absence, his sister Priyanka Gandhi took the lead. He said the government should listen to the voice of farmers. It is not correct to say that the peasant movement is a political conspiracy. The words the government is using for farmers are a sin. The government will have to withdraw new agricultural laws.
