The Congress leaders have decided that the party will protest across the country against the ED's questioning of Sonia Gandhi. Along with this, the party has planned to gherao the ED offices across the country.

According to the information, Priyanka Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi can go with Sonia Gandhi to drop her at the ED office here. Meanwhile, the Congress MPs, led by Rahul Gandhi, considering taking out a march from the Parliament House.

    We hope the ED will abide by the game's rules to complete the questioning within office hours considering her frail health. Inhuman ways of interrogation should stop. Still unable to understand how PMLA is applicable when there is no money laundering as reported by the media about the entire episode!!! It's time there is Judicial Activism to arrest such publicity stunts of the Government. Linking Sonia Gandhi to Ahmed Patel who is no more and unable to answer the allegation in the Setelwad case appears to be a precursor to maligning Ms Sonia Gandhi prior to the ED summons.

    Your concerns are well noted. But please understand that people under trial are not innocents and have backup of legal and political teams. It would be good if your humanitarian sympathies are expressed on innocent poor who were deprived from their legitimate rights by the powerful political parties from independence till recent times.
