 "Rahul Gandhi, Congress")
Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi on Monday said he is going abroad for a "few days", but did not specify the country he is heading for.
"Traveling out of the country for a few days on a short visit. Thanks again to all who met & wished me y'day, truly grateful for your affection!", he said on Twitter.
Gandhi had celebrated his 46th birthday only yesterday amid speculation that he could be elevated as the party chief on that day.
