Sonia accepts Venkaiah's clarification on Rahul leave jibe

February 26, 2015 15:17

Congress president Sonia Gandhi says she accepts union minister Venkaiah Naidu's clarification in Parliament today. Parliament was disrupted just ahead of the presentation of the railway budget with the opposition, led by Sonia Gandhi, demanding an apology from the minister.

Naidu had taken a swipe at Rahul Gandhi for taking leave during the parliamentary session to "introspect".

In an apparent dig at Rahul Gandhis leave to "introspect", the minister said if the Congress cant do it here, then it should go somewhere far and do it. He also drilled in the fact that it was his party in power at the Centre for the next five years.

And about the Delhi verdict, Naidu said, "We need to examine why after winning in seven states we lost in Delhi You (Congress) have been reduced to zero."
