Senior Congress leader Sonia Gandhi discussed her transition from private life to public service while promoting her forthcoming memoir, ‘Belonging: A Journey of Love’.
Sonia Gandhi, the veteran Congress figure, is set to release a memoir titled *Belonging: A Journey of Love*. The book, which has attracted considerable attention, chronicles her personal evolution from a life of privacy in Italy to a prominent role in Indian politics.
In a recent interview, Gandhi reflected on the challenges of stepping into the public arena, noting how family responsibilities and political commitments intertwined over the decades. She emphasized that the memoir is less about political strategy and more about the emotional and relational aspects of her journey.
The publication is slated for release in the coming weeks, and pre‑order demand has reportedly been strong among party supporters and political observers alike. Analysts suggest that the memoir could offer new insights into the inner workings of the Congress party and the personal sacrifices made by its senior members.
While the book does not promise revelations of classified matters, its narrative is expected to humanise a figure who has largely remained out of the media spotlight. The launch event is anticipated to draw senior party leaders and members of the literary community.
