Rahul Gandhi, who has resigned as Congress president, Thursday held a brief discussion with party leaders in Mumbai, in which he asked them to aggressively take up issues faced by citizens during monsoon.

Gandhi was in the city to appear in a local court in a defamation case.

The 49-year-old leader, who had announced his resignation as the Congress president on Wednesday, also discussed the party's preparation for the upcoming Assembly polls in Maharashtra.

Mumbai Congress president Milind Deora and party legislators from the city were present at the airport to receive Gandhi and see him off.

A party leader, who was present at the airport after the court hearing at Sewree said, "Rahulji appeared relaxed and took updates from us about the preparations for the assembly polls."
