An attempt to present the reality of the family in the book
Regarding the decision to write the book, Sonia Gandhi said in a post on 'X' that she wanted to present a more private and realistic picture of her family to the public. Many things have been written about the family; But what those individuals were like, their motivations, struggles and human limitations are rarely depicted. He explained that through this book he tried to present the people he knew and loved honestly.
Meanwhile, BJP has raised questions on Sonia Gandhi's upcoming book. The BJP alleged that the book contained political criticism instead of personal experiences. Before the publication of the book, Sonia Gandhi criticized the Narendra Modi government in an interview given to 'The Hindu' newspaper. He alleged that the government was causing huge damage to the democratic institutions of the country. He also said that religion is being used to control the mainstream media and for political gain.

Apart from this, Sonia Gandhi also supported the constitutional basis of Emergency which was implemented in 1975. Following his statement, BJP leaders accused him of trying to support the Emergency during the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's tenure.
Until now, Sonia Gandhi had stayed away from personal social media accounts. His statements and messages were mainly published through the official 'X' account of the Congress. However, in the wake of the book's release, he has started being active on X and Instagram. Therefore, this change in their public communication is considered important.
