New Delhi: Congress Parliamentary Party chairperson Sonia Gandhi has shared several important points about her relations with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in her new book, ‘Belonging: A Journey of Love’. She has written that her personal contact with Prime Minister Modi is almost negligible. During meetings held in the Lok Sabha Speaker’s chamber after Parliament sessions, the two exchange only formal greetings.
According to Sonia Gandhi, whenever the two come face to face, they greet each other, but she says the Prime Minister often looks away and does not make eye contact. She said the two have also occasionally exchanged formal greetings on birthdays and New Year. The Prime Minister had also asked about her health after she returned from hospital.
In the book, Sonia Gandhi has acknowledged that Prime Minister Modi and she belong to different worlds of thought. She described this not as a personal difference, but as a difference over the idea of the country and political ideology. However, she also wrote that she understands the struggle behind the Prime Minister’s political journey and his rise to the top of power. She said she felt some similarity with some of the Prime Minister’s feelings when it came to discomfort with the influential circles of power.
In the 544-page book released on November 10, Sonia Gandhi has also shared her experiences on her personal life, Rajiv Gandhi’s assassination, Indira Gandhi’s tenure, the Emergency and several important episodes in Indian politics.
