Political Reactions Emerge to Sonia Gandhis Book Belonging: A Journey of Love
Political leaders react to Sonia Gandhis new book, discussing its implications for Congress and Bihars political landscape.
Patna, November 12 (Daily Kiran) : Political responses have emerged regarding Sonia Gandhi’s new book, “Belonging: A Journey of Love.” Various leaders from the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) shared their thoughts on the publication. Bihar Minister Deepak Prakash, Union Minister Chirag Paswan, and Madhya Pradesh BJP MLA Rameshwar Sharma each offered their perspectives.
In Patna, Minister Deepak Prakash stated that he lacks detailed information about the book. He acknowledged its publication and extended his best wishes to Gandhi. However, he noted that he is not aware of the specific topics or facts mentioned in the book. Prakash emphasized that those directly involved should respond to Gandhi’s statements and the information being made public.
In Bhopal, BJP MLA Rameshwar Sharma criticized the book, likening it to “crocodile tears” for Congress. He suggested that Gandhi aims to portray the party’s ideology and empathy. Sharma referenced significant events such as the demolition of the Babri Masjid and the Operation Blue Star, questioning Gandhi’s sensitivity during those times. He pointed out that while she expressed sorrow over these incidents, she did not show the same concern for the 1984 anti-Sikh riots or the shooting of devotees.
Sharma accused Congress of appeasing Muslims and engaging in politics for power, claiming that the party has no regard for the interests of Hindus, Sikhs, or the nation. He also mentioned the Ram Temple, asserting that millions of Hindus share a commitment to the temple’s significance.
Chirag Paswan, the Union Minister, commented on Gandhi’s book and its mention of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, stating that it lacks anything particularly noteworthy. He remarked that people frequently document their thoughts and opinions, and this book is simply another instance of that.
Regarding Bihar’s political climate, Paswan noted that the opposition is attempting to gain political advantage by spreading confusion. He asserted that the NDA is currently in a strong position in Bihar and is working to advance the state under Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary’s leadership. He also highlighted Prime Minister Modi‘s vision for development.
