Should M Kharge Visit Sonia Gandhi, Or...? Congress' Quick Change Of Plans

Sources say after some discussions, Sonia Gandhi decided that given the occasion, it really should be the other way round.

Mallikarjun Kharge's first instinct after being declared the next Congress president was to visit Sonia Gandhi at her 10, Janpath home. He requested an appointment but did not get one.

Sources say after some discussions, Sonia Gandhi decided that given the occasion, it really should be the other way round.

So, from 10 Janpath, the meeting shifted to 10 Rajaji Marg, Mr Kharge's home.

Sonia Gandhi's visit to Mr Kharge's home marks a break from convention in the Congress.
