Accepting his request, the probe agency asked him to appear on Monday.For three consecutive days last week, Rahul Gandhi had been grilled for about 30 hours amid widespread Congress protests in the national capital against their leader being questioned.
He was reportedly questioned about a few transactions made by Kolkata-based Dotex Merchandise Pvt Ltd.Sonia Gandhi, who is presently hospitalised with Covid related health issues, has also been summoned on June 23 in the same case.
