# Rahul Gandhi shares mother Sonia’s memoir, says father proud 2026-08-20T14:26:10+00:00 | Politics | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday shared news of his mother Sonia Gandhi's upcoming memoir, titled "Belonging: A Journey of Love", expressing pride that her life's journey would finally be shared with the public. In a post on social media platform X, Rahul Gandhi said his father Rajiv Gandhi would be smiling down proudly at his beautiful Sonia, referring to his parents' relationship. The memoir, set to be published by Penguin Random House India, is expected to cover Sonia Gandhi's journey from her childhood in Italy to becoming a central figure in Indian politics. The book's title hints at personal narratives of love and belonging, though specific release dates or chapter details have not been announced yet. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The memoir's title suggests a personal rather than political focus, which could shape public perception of Sonia Gandhi's legacy beyond her decades in Congress leadership. The book arrives as the Gandhi family faces increasing political scrutiny ahead of general elections. For readers, the key question is whether the memoir will address controversial episodes like the National Herald case or remain strictly personal. The publishing industry often coordinates book launches with political events, so watch for a release date tied to the next election cycle. ## Coverage - ndtv.com Straightforward reporting of Rahul Gandhi's social media post and book details, with no added commentary or slant.
