New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi vacated his official residence in central Delhi on Saturday.
Soon after his disqualification as an MP of the Lok Sabha, the Lok Sabha Housing Committee, headed by BJP MP CR Patil, had sent him a letter asking him to vacate his 12 Tughlaq Lane bungalow, which he has been occupying since 2005, by April 22.
Rahul Gandhi will officially hand over the bungalow to the Lok Sabha secretariat on April 22. The shifting process started on April 14. The remaining things were moved out on Friday evening, a day after his plea for a stay on the conviction in the defamation case was rejected by a Surat sessions court.
Though he is required to move out according to protocol, Congress leaders have accused the Centre of political vendetta. A disqualified MP is not entitled to a government accommodation and gets a one-month period to vacate his official residence.
