NEW DELHI: Congress president Sonia Gandhi has tested positive for COVID-19 and she has isolated herself under medical advice, party chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said on Thursday.
He said the Congress chief had a mild fever and she tested positive this morning.
Surjewala said, “We hope she will get better. We will get her tested again and her plan of visiting the ED stands”.
The case to probe alleged financial irregularities in the party-promoted Young Indian that owns the National Herald newspaper was registered recently.
Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi, who also has been summoned in connection with the National Herald case, has requested the probe agency to give him some more time to join the investigation.
Sonia Gandhi was on Wednesday summoned by the Enforcement Directorate in a money laundering case to appear before it on June 8.
