Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal on Tuesday took a swipe at the government over Congress leader Rahul Gandhi being asked to vacate his official bungalow, calling it “petty politics of petty men”.
Gandhi was on Monday asked to vacate the government bungalow allotted to him by April 22 following hisdisqualification as a memberof Lok Sabha after his conviction in a defamation caselast week.
The Housing Committee of the Lok Sabha took the decision following which the secretariat of the House wrote to the former Congress president, a Z-plus protectee who has been living in the 12, Tughlaq Lane bungalow since 2005.
