New Delhi : Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi and Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Hanuman’ Chirag Paswan are going to become neighbours of each other. Paswan, who calls himself PM Modi’s ‘Hanuman’, has got 1, Sunhari Bagh as official residence. On the other hand, Rahul Gandhi has been offered 5, Sunhari Bagh bungalow. Interestingly, Chirag Paswan’s father Ram Vilas Paswan was a neighbour of Rahul Gandhi’s mother Sonia Gandhi until his death in 2020. His residence was 12, Janpath. A unique relationship is seen between the Paswan and Gandhi families. Incidentally, now the second generation of both the families is also going to become neighbours. Union Minister Chirag Paswan has got 1, Sunhari Bagh official residence and Rahul Gandhi has been offered bungalow number 5 adjacent to it.
This coincidence reminds us of how Sonia Gandhi had opened a new chapter in coalition politics by visiting Ram Vilas Paswan’s house at 12, Janpath in 2003. After that meeting, Paswan broke away from the BJP-led NDA and joined the Congress-led UPA.
Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi has been offered Bungalow No. 5 in Sunhari Bagh. Gandhi has not shifted there yet. Renovation work is going on in the bungalow right now. It is expected that Rahul Gandhi will start living in the bungalow after the renovation work is completed.

It is expected that Rahul Gandhi will start living in it after the renovation work is completed. After Rahul Gandhi became the Leader of Opposition, he is entitled to a Type-8 bungalow because his status is equal to that of a Cabinet Minister.
Rahul Gandhi vacated 12, Tughlaq Lane bungalow after being disqualified last year for being convicted in the Modi surname defamation case. He then shifted to his mother Sonia Gandhi’s residence at 10, Janpath. He continued to stay at 10 Janpath even after his disqualification was later revoked.
