Political Reactions Swirl Around Sonia Gandhi’s Autobiography Launch

New Delhi – The announcement of Sonia Gandhi’s autobiography *Belonging: A Journey of Love* set for a November 10 debut has triggered a wave of comments from rival parties. The book is expected to detail crucial chapters of her career and personal saga.

BJP MLA Ram Kadam, speaking to media in Mumbai, offered a mixed message: he wished her well but implied that the memoir could reveal the Prime Minister’s role as a “remote‑controlled figure” and alleged corrupt practices during her influential period.

He remarked, “Many write flattering stories, but if Ms. Gandhi’s book presents the truth, it will be welcomed.”

Congress spokesperson Rajiv Ranjan replied with a courteous note, wishing her success and stating that the autobiography chronicles her own experiences.

Congress leader Pawan Khera hailed the book as more than a publication – a life‑journey that covers the pain of losing close family members, notably her husband Rajiv Gandhi.

The divergent reactions underscore the political stakes attached to the memoir’s upcoming launch.
