Breaking News June 16 Updates: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Thursday evening accepted Rahul Gandhi’s request and summoned him to appear before the agency on Monday for a probe in the National Herald Case. Earlier in the day, Rahul Gandhi had appealed to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to postpone June 17 (Friday) questioning due to the treatment of his mother and party president Sonia Gandhi. On the other hand, Congress held nationwide protests against the continued questioning of senior party leader Rahul Gandhi by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in the National Herald money laundering case. Uttar Pradesh Congress said it will hold a ‘Raj Bhawan gherao’ programme on Thursday in Lucknow. The manner in which former national president of the Congress is being tortured on the pretext of interrogation by the ED at the behest of the BJP will not be tolerated, chairman of UP Congress’ Media and Communication Department Naseemuddin Siddiqui told reporters here on Wednesday. “Congress will intensify satyagraha across the country against it and on Thursday, June 16, the Raj Bhavan will also be gheraoed in Lucknow,” Siddiqui said.
