The Delhi High Court on Tuesday adjourned the ongoing hearing of the National Herald case till tomorrow.

Earlier, Congress President Sonia Gandhi and her son and Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi challenged an order summoning them to a Delhi court on August 7, to explain BJP leader Subramanian Swamy's allegations.

A lower court had on June 26 summoned Sonia and Rahul and three others to answer allegations that they used their leadership of the Congress Party to misuse about USD 15 million dollars of party funds for personal profit. The party had received notices from the tax authority, a communication in which the recipient is asked to explain apparent irregularities in his tax declarations.

Swamy had alleged misappropriation of assets worth rupees 20 billion of the National Herald newspaper. Swamy had accused Sonia and others of conspiring to cheat.

At the heart of the court case is Associated Journals Limited, publisher of three newspapers, including the National Herald, an English daily founded and edited by Jawaharlal Nehru before he became independent India's first Prime Minister.
