'Whatever Sonia Gandhi writes might affect BJP's health: Congress' Bhupesh Baghel on row over memoir publication
Congress leader Bhupesh Baghel's remarks came amid a controversy over the publication of Sonia Gandhi's memoir ‘Belonging’.
Congress leader Bhupesh Baghel claims the government is attempting to prevent the publication of Sonia Gandhi's memoir to weaken the BJP's position. The Congress MP said, "You can understand how much pressure the government and the public relations department exerts. Sonia Gandhi is someone who speaks boldly, a fearless woman, and the chairperson of UPA.
Whatever she writes might affect the BJP's health. That's why they don't want it to be published." This comes as Penguin Random House India clarified it is not the publisher of the memoir in India, stating it remains interested in releasing the book. The 79-year-old Congress veteran's memoir, "Belonging: A Journey of Love," details her life, including her romance with Rajiv Gandhi and the tragedies that shaped her.
