Congress in-charge of Punjab meets Sonia

New Delhi, June 27: Congress leader Asha Kumari, appointed in-charge in Punjab replacing Kamal Nath, met party president Sonia Gandi on Monday.

An MLA from Dalhousie in Himachal Pradesh, Asha Kumari was convicted in a land grab case in February and was sentenced to one year imprisonment. She is currently out on bail.

Both the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) have attacked her over this issue.

"The BJP is free to allege what they want to but it is not the truth," Asha Kumari told reporters after meeting Gandhi.
