Rahul Gandhi sends love to ailing Arun Jaitley, wishes speedy recovery
New Delhi, Jan 16 (IBNS): Keeping aside all political antagonism, Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday sent love to Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, who is recuperating from kidney ailment.
Rahul tweeted saying, "I'm upset to hear Arun Jaitley Ji is not well. We fight him on a daily basis for his ideas. However, I and the Congress party send him our love and best wishes for a speedy recovery. We are with you and your family 100% during this difficult period Mr Jaitley."

Jaitley, who had undergone renal transplant surgery last year, flew to the US on Sunday for medical check-up. He is not likely to present the budget in the Lok Sabha on Feb 1.
A glimpse of Rahul-Jaitley political fight:
Inside and outside the parliament, Rahul and Jaitley, who is a senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader, were seen exchanging bitter words over issues like the controversial Rafale deal.
Recently the Congress chief had called Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Jan 1 interview with a news agency a "staged" in the course of a discussion in the parliament.
In reply, Jaitley took to Twitter to slam the opposition leader for attacking the editor of the news agency, calling Rahul the "grandson of the emergency dictator" with a reference to former Prime Minister late Indira Gandhi who had called national emergency way back in 1975.
The Grandson of the ‘Emergency dictator’ displays his real DNA – attacks and intimidates an independent Editor.
