Foreign Origin Controversy and Offer of Resignation
As she rose in politics, Sonia Gandhi faced several challenges. In May 1999, some senior leaders questioned her foreign origin. During this controversy, Sonia Gandhi offered to resign from the presidency, taking moral responsibility. However, most of the party leaders and workers stood by her and demanded that she continue her leadership.
Led Congress to Historic Victories
Under Sonia Gandhi’s leadership, the Congress party won two consecutive Lok Sabha elections and formed governments in 16 states across the country in the 2000s. She later stepped down as Congress president in 2017. Currently, she is a member of the Rajya Sabha and plays a guiding role in the party.
