This is some information on Rajmata of India - Sonia Gandhi that every Indian and atleast every India lover must know.
1. Sonia Gandhi is ONLY a high school graduate. Cambridge University has confirmed that they have no Sonia Maino on their alumni list.
2. Her sister, Nadia Mario, reached New Delhi, after Vajpayee govt.fell, to be by her side amidst reports that she might soon become India's prime minister.
3. Should Sonia Gandhi become prime minister, her relatives in Italy would be fully entitled to round-the-clock protection by the Black Cat commandos at the Indian tax-payer's expense.
4. She worked as an au-pair maid in UK while taking classes to learn English in some no name school
5. During the 1971 war, while all Indians stood ready to fight for the Indian cause Sonia Maino and her husband Rajiv Gandhi went on vacation in Italy.
6. In 1977, when Indira Gandhi and Congress lost elections, Sonia Gandhi with her children and husband in tow took refuge of Italian embassy in New Delhi and Indira Gandhi, Sanjay and his Indian wife Maneka had to convince her to return.
7. Sonia married Rajiv in 1968 and was eligible to become Indian citizen 5 years later yet she did NOT become Indian citizen till 1984 (i.e.16 years after her marriage) This late bloom of Sonia's love for India also was out of political consideration. In 1984, Rajiv, was heir apparent and most likely next prime minister. It would be awkward for a PM to have a foreigner wife.Voila, Sonia became an Indian overnight.
8. She has not given a single interview or offered any ideas on a single issue facing India now. Her only qualification is that she married a Gandhi.

thnx for all this info.
but do spare a thought for a lady who loses her husband,her only confidante,at a young age, in a tragic shock, in an land far away from her home....
...she had all the riches to go back to her nation then and lead a luxuroius life...she decides against that and continues to carry a "struggle" in our nation.
...when people of india offer her post of p.m on a platter, it needs a mighty heart to say no...even if critics build story of hers doing all this for her son..
think from a "humane" view
