Congress Parliamentary Party chairperson Sonia Gandhi will be part of a dinner that Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah will be hosting for Opposition leaders at Bengaluru for the mega Opposition meet in Bengaluru on July 17 and 18.
Ms. Gandhi is expected to be part of the formal deliberations on July 18 as well for which Congress president Malikarjun Kharge has sent out invitation to 24 like-minded parties including the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
It is unclear whether or not the AAP would attend the Bengaluru meet as it had announced that it would keep away from such meets until the Congress publicly assures them of support in the Rajya Sabha to negate the Centre’s ordinance on Delhi services. The said ordinance gives the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi the final say over government officers in the national capital.
