New Delhi: Congress president Sonia Gandhi has gone abroad for a routine health check up, a party leader said here Saturday.
Gandhi is likely to return in four or five days, party general secretary Janardan Dwivedi told IANS, but gave no other details.
The Congress chief was in the US last year for six weeks from August for treatment of an undisclosed ailment.
She had then constituted a group comprising Defence Minister A.K. Antony, her son and party general secretary Rahul Gandhi, her political secretary Ahmed Patel and Dwivedi to look after party affairs in her absence.
Later, in February this year, Sonia Gandhi had gone abroad for medical checkup.
