Days after his disqualification as an MP, Rahul Gandhi was on Monday asked to vacate his official bungalow on Tughlaq Lane by April 22.
The Lok Sabha Secretariat issued the notice to Rahul to vacate the 12, Tughlaq Lane bungalow on Monday, three days after the Lok Sabha Secretariat issued a notification announcing the Congress leader's disqualification following his conviction in a defamation case on Thursday.
In the letter to Rahul, Lok Sabha Secretariat Deputy Secretary Mohit Ranjan said that he was directed to state that the Congress leader is allowed to retain the bungalow along with its units for a "maximum period of one month, ie up to April 22" on similar terms and conditions as applicable to an MP before his disqualification.
Congress Deputy Leader Pramod Tiwari said the move showed "BJP's hatred" towards Rahul. "For a period of 30 days after the notice is served, one can rightfully continue to stay in the same house. After the 30-day time period, one can continue to stay in the same house by paying rent at market rates”, he said.
