Sonia Gandhi is an Indian politician. Her party, the Indian National Congress, has ruled India for most of its post-independence history. After serving for twenty-two years as party leader, she took over in 1998, seven years after the murder of Rajiv Gandhi, her husband, and a former Prime Minister of India. She returned to the post in 2019 after her son, Rahul Gandhi, resigned.
