Dodging immense political heat that Congress is facing from the opposition and the civil society members, United Progressive Alliance chairperson Sonia Gandhi is reportedly on a visit to her hometown Italy.
Congress sources have disclosed that Sonia is probably away from the country, visiting her ailing mother, Paola Maino.
