‘Only Priyanka and I know…’: Rahul Gandhi’s emotional note to mother Sonia on her upcoming memoir

Rahul Gandhi beamed with joy as he unveiled his mother Sonia Gandhi's upcoming memoir, "Belonging: A Journey of Love," set to release in November. In an emotional message on X, Rahul paid tribute to his mother, who endured immense hardships following the loss of her husband, Rajiv Gandhi. He recalled the last time they had been together, more than 35 years ago, and expressed his admiration for her unwavering courage and dignity.

Only he and his sister Priyanka truly understood the challenges she faced in the years that followed.

Rahul remarked that it took significant courage for Sonia to share her personal story and acknowledged the difficulty of revealing the intimate details of her life. He wished her well on this milestone in her life and reflected on a proud moment when he envisioned his father smiling and looking down upon her. The memoir, "Belonging: A Journey of Love," promises an honest account of Sonia's experiences, exploring the joys and tragedies of her married life in the Nehru-Gandhi political dynasty and her decision not to seek the prime ministership.
