Rahul returns from USA without Sonia Gandhi


Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi, who had gone to the US to bring back his mother Sonia, has returned to the national capital.
Rahul had gone to the US some days ago amid clear indications from the party that the Congress president was recovering well post surgery and expected to be back in the national capital by the first week of September.
Highly placed party sources confirmed the return of the AICC general secretary. They said Sonia Gandhi has not yet returned, but indicated that she could be back here shortly.
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who was staying with her mother, was also back here some 10 days ago in an indication that the Congress president was recovering well.
The 64-year-old Congress president had undergone a surgery for an undisclosed ailment in a US hospital on August 4.
Sonia Gandhi had constituted a four-member team of Rahul Gandhi, AK Antony, Ahmed Patel and Janardhan Dwivedi to look after party affairs in her absence.

Lok Sabha polls: Campaign gets personal; Narendra Modi, Rahul Gandhi attack at each other

NEW DELHI | MUMBAI: Toffee, Tata and Ambedkar entered 2014's campaign lexicon on Monday as Rahul Gandhi and Narendra Modi intensified what's already become a virtual competition of personal attacks. Adding to this were similar attacks on rivals by other leaders of both parties. Gandhi's targeting of Modi, which resulted in Tatas being named in political attacks for the first time this poll season, seemed more dramatic, as it persists in naming big companies. But so far at least, pundits in finance, marketing and academia don't see such a strategy change delivering major benefits for Congress.

"You get a toffee at Rs 1, but Modi gave away 44,000 acre at Rs 1 (per) sq m," Gandhi said. "This is not Gujarat model, this is toffee model." On Tatas, Gandhi said, "Tata can get a loan for 20 yea...
