Sonia Gandhi’s upcoming memoir has brought the Babri Masjid demolition of December 1992 back into the political spotlight. Recalling the events, Gandhi says she cried while watching the mosque being demolished on television. She describes the moment as the beginning of a long struggle to protect the secular vision of India championed by Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru and other leaders of the freedom movement. In interviews ahead of the release of Belonging: A Journey of Love, Gandhi has also criticised the BJP-RSS leadership, alleging that the country's democratic institutions and social fabric have suffered significant damage over the past 12 years. She has questioned the ideological direction of the current government and expressed concern about the state of India's pluralistic and secular traditions. n18oc_breaking-newsn18oc_india CNN-News18 is your trusted source for breaking news, updates, and in-depth analysis from around the world.
