Gandhi skipped the first summons on June 8 as she tested positive for Covid-19 on June 2 and was admitted to Delhi’s Sir Ganga Ram Hospital. The agency sent second summons, asking her to appear before it on June 23. In response, she wrote to the agency expressing inability to comply with the notice, citing health issues.
