NEW DELHI: Just a day before the 136th foundation day of Congress, former party president and Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi left for a short personal trip to abroad.

Speaking on the same, Congress spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said that Rahul is travelling out of the country and will be away for a few days. Although the party did not disclose the destination, sources said that the former party president has left for Milan in Italy.
On December 24, Rahul Gandhi had led a delegation to meet President Ram Nath Kovind against the farm laws and submitted a memorandum to him urging that he should ask the government to reconsider the demands of the farmers. He had also demanded a joint session of the Parliament and withdrawal of the three agricultural laws.
