Initially the Congress party had decided that they would raise the issue of the National Herald case in Parliament and stall the proceedings in the House. However, when the leaders realised that this would send out a wrong signal that the Party leaders, in order to protect Sonia and Rahul Gandhi were not allowing the Parliament to function, they started reiterating that there was no connection between the National Herald issue and the GST bill or with that of stalling the Parliament proceedings. Rahul Gandhi is of the opinion that by taking his protests to the street, his party would make the most of it but some of his party leaders feel that instead of making it into a political issue, it needs to be fought legally.
