Ahead of the crucial budget session, Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi took "leave of absence" to reflect on a series of electoral defeats and deliberate on the future course of the 130-year-old party, reports suggested on Monday.
"Rahul Gandhi has been granted leave of absence for 'aap chintan, aap manthan' (introspection)," a party leader told IANS.
The absence of Rahul Gandhi, son of party president Sonia Gandhi, from a crucial budget session assumes greater significance at a time when parliament is likely to witness stiff opposition in view of six ordinances has amused many twitteratis who got cracking.
Rahul Gandhi has always been a very favoured discussion and #RahulonLeave trending on twitter. Here are some of the best of them.
Why isn't #RahulGandhi trending yet... #RahulOnLeave ...as If he was present all this while..

VP Son applies for leave, President Mom approves. Clearly this a public funded private limited company. #RahulOnLeave perpetually.
