    What's the story

    On Wednesday, the official Twitter handle of Congress sent best wishes to senior BJP leaders Amit Shah and Arun Jaitley, both of whom are undergoing treatment after an illness.

    Jaitley, who had a kidney transplant last year, went to the States for a normal health check-up. He is expected to be back by end of next week and no one has been given reins of Finance Ministry till then.
