Mysore, Sep 15 - Overwhelmed by the sprawling, state-of-the-art campus of IT bellwether Infosys, Congress president Sonia Gandhi Tuesday repeatedly said it gave her an opportunity to 'bunk political classes' for a little while.

Gandhi visited the Infosys Technologies Ltd campus here to inaugurate the Global Education Centre (GEC-II), the latest infrastructural addition to the IT giant meant for training its new recruits.

'I am happy to be here. I also would like to share the secret of my happiness. Coming here has given me an opportunity to bunk my political classes for a few hours,' Gandhi said addressing a gathering of several hundred people, mostly young employees of Infosys.

'I have toured the entire campus and liked it a lot. Honestly, I would like to bunk my classes for a few more days to stay here,' she smiled.

After inaugurating the centre, the United Progressive Alliance chairperson also planted a sapling and toured parts of the campus, spread across 337 acres of land.
