Sonia Gandhi is the longest-serving president of the Congress party, which has governed India during most of its post-Independence decades. She was born in Italy, and educated at Cambridge University, where she met Rajiv Gandhi, who was then the son of prime minister Indira Gandhi. The two married in 1968.
After Rajiv Gandhi’s assassination in 1991, during campaigning for that year’s general elections, Sonia Gandhi initially stayed away from politics, but in 1998, she was chosen as the president of the Congress party. Under her leadership, in 2004, a Congress-led coalition came to power at the Centre. She famously declined to be prime minister — her foreign birth had become a politically controversial issue — and instead chose the economist Manmohan Singh. She was then named the chairperson of the coalition, which was called the United Progressive Alliance or the UPA.
Sonia Gandhi won her first Lok Sabha election in 1999, representing Amethi in Uttar Pradesh, a family stronghold. From 2004, she has represented Rae Bareli as an MP in the Lok Sabha. In 2024, she announced she was contesting elections from the Rajya Sabha, the indirectly elected house of Parliament, signalling her stepping back from electoral politics.
There is no need to tell !
Indians are a race of wimpets and limpets
Now that PRC blood is shed,on so-called Indian land – and that is precisely what, the PRC wanted – as a part of the propaganda – now ,PRC will not retreat, even 1 mm.
The battle is won by the PLA and PRC and the land is taken – AND NOW THERE IS NO ROOM FOR NEGOTIATIONS.dindooohindoo
That is the PRC model – from the times of Mao and Chou En Lai
Now they will spread the domino all across the North East.
It is goodbye to Sikkim,Arunachal,Nagaland,Ladakh and the UNSC.
What kind of a stupid question is “How did the PLA take Galwan” ?
They just walked in !
Even in 1962 – they walked for 100s of kms.
Now the point is – can the Hindoo Dindoos walk in ?
That ain’t happening – as they are wimpets and cowards
As an aside, does anyone believe that PRC lost 100 men ? This is also a PLA strategem – to let the Indian Cowards gloat – AND NOT TAKE BACK THE OCCUPIED LAND. The Chinese know the Indian Psyche – the psyche of cowards and weasels.
If PLA is on the heights and the Indians went into PLA zone for talks – how can 100 PLA be killed ?
At night ? With Night Vision Goggles and Thermal cameras ? Ate there knife wounds,or wire wounds or stone wounds ?
Did they die of loss of blood,trauma,organ failure or pneumonia ?
Ain’t asking the right questions !
PLA got away with murder – allowing the lies about the PLA death toll to roll !
