Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the Congress, left his official bungalow on Saturday and declared that he would take any punishment for expressing the truth. The action was taken in response to the former Lok Sabha MP’s disqualification. Rahul Gandhi claimed that the Tughlaq Lane government home was a gift from the nation and that he had lived there for 19 years.

He handed over the keys to his official bungalow in the presence of KC Venugopal, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Sonia Gandhi, and other party officials. “I want to thank the people of Hindustan for giving me this residence for 19 years. It represents the cost of telling the truth. I’m willing to pay whatever it takes to speak the truth. After the transfer, Rahul Gandhi declared, “I shall be residing at 10 Janpath for a few days.

“I’ll stay at 10 Janpath for some time, then we’ll figure out something,” he said when asked where he will go now. Sonia Gandhi presently lives at 10 Janpath. Priyanka Gandhi also echoed Rahul Gandhi’s sentiment when she stated that her brother was suffering as he had spoken the truth. “Whatever my brother is saying is truth. He spoke truth about the government for which he is suffering. But we are not afraid..,” Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said.

AICC General Secretary KC Venugopal said, “They can give this house to anyone now. The way the Modi government and Amit Shah is targeting Rahul Gandhi is completely a political vendetta.” Earlier in the day, trucks loaded with furniture were spotted departing from the 12 Tughlaq Lane bungalow.
