Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi had attended the opposition meeting in Bengaluru which took place on July 17 and 18.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi shared a picture of his mother Sonia Gandhi from an aircraft. In an Instagram post, Gandhi wrote a caption ‘Ma, the epitome of grace under pressure’.

The picture was apparently clicked on an aircraft in which the Gandhis were travelling. The flight coming from Bengaluru made an emergency landing in Bhopal on Tuesday. The veteran Congress leader and her son Rahul had attended the two-day mega opposition meeting in Bengaluru.

While returning from Bengaluru, the flight had to make an emergency landing in Bhopal due to technical glitch. In the Instagram post, Sonia Gandhi was photographed wearing an oxygen mask.

Senior Congress leader Shoba Oza told PTI,“The chartered plane carrying Sonia ji and Rahul ji made an emergency landing because of some technical snag.”

On getting information about the development, senior Congress leaders, including Oza, former Union minister Suresh Pachori, MLAs PC Sharma, Arif Masood and Kunal Choudhary rushed to the airport and met the Gandhis in the lounge.
