    The officials further asked Rahul Gandhi to submit documents or evidence if any charitable work has been done by Young Indian, reports said.

    Digital Desk: Rahul Gandhi appeared before the Enforcement Directorate for the third day of questioning in connection with the National Herald money laundering case. The Congress leader assured the agency that no money has been taken away from the Young Indian.

    Rahul Gandhi is being questioned by the ED about potential financial irregularities at Young Indian Private Limited, a Congress-backed company that runs National Herald. Young Indian owns and publishes the newspaper, which is produced by Associated Journals Limited (AJL).

    According to reports, Rahul Gandhi told Enforcement Directorate inspectors that Young Indian is a non-profit organisation that was formed under a unique clause of the Companies Act. The Congress leader claimed that not a single penny has been taken out of it, reports claimed.

    Meanwhile, it has been reported that the ED officials countered Rahul Gandhi’s claim and alleged that "the company has not done any charitable work since the time it has been formed in 2010".

    Notably, the officials further asked Rahul Gandhi to submit documents or evidence if any charitable work has been done by Young Indian, reports said.
