What's behind this
Sonia Gandhi, the 79‑year‑old Congress Parliamentary Party chairperson, said the Emergency was a mistake and that her mother‑in‑law, then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, eventually came to share that view.

In her upcoming book “Belonging: A Journey of Love”, she recalled pleading with Rajiv Gandhi after Indira’s assassination, fearing he would become a target if he became prime minister.
