About eight Congress leaders are said to be expecting notices from the Enforcement Directorate (ED) seeking clarifications on the donations they made to the National Herald when the management wanted to settle pending salaries and other benefits to employees of the newspaper.
Sources said the ED notices were getting ready and even Congress leaders were expecting them to be served on them as the ED had yet again got active on the issue after being silent for several days after questioning Congress president Sonia Gandhi and also Parliament member Rahul Gandhi.
The names of the Congress leaders doing rounds include former ministers, J. Geetha Reddy, Mohammed Ali Shabbir and P. Sudarshan Reddy apart from former MP Anjan Kumar Yadav. The name of former Union Minister Renuka Chowdary also sprang up. However, none of them received the notices so far.
