Rahul Gandhi, then, left to lead the Congress protests at Vijay Chowk near Parliament against his mother's interrogation by the probe agency in the case, which the party has accused to be the BJP-led Centre's political vendetta.
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who was also accompanying her mother Sonia Gandhi, stayed on at the agency’s office.
Sonia Gandhi’s home to the ED's office was cordoned off to prevent any law and order situation.
