Rahul Gandhi meets President Pranab Mukherjee

New Delhi: Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi on Thursday met President Pranab Mukherjee amid speculation of a possible Cabinet reshuffle. It was not immediately clear as to what transpired during the half-an-hour meeting.

This comes two days after Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress president Sonia Gandhi met the President on Tuesday.

Sources said Union Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde also met Mukherjee and briefed him about security-related issues in the country. Shinde had recently undertaken a three-day tour of Jammu and Kashmir during which he had met top state government and security functionaries.
