A large number of Congress leaders, including Shashi Tharoor, Ashok Gehlot, P Chidambaram, Ajay Maken, and Sachin Pilot, were detained during protests on the day of Sonia Gandhi’s previous ED appearance.
Similar protests were held when Gandhi’s son and former party president Rahul Gandhi was quizzed by the ED in the same case in June. Rahul Gandhi had appeared before the investigation agency for five rounds of questioning.
Meanwhile, traffic restrictions have been imposed in the area around the ED office and the Congress headquarters in central Delhi in view of the demonstrations expected on Tuesday.
