Sonia Gandhi's Transition to Rajya Sabha Marks End of an Era

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has claimed that Sonia Gandhi's nomination to the Rajya Sabha is an admission of defeat in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, citing Rahul Gandhi's loss in Amethi as a precursor to a potential defeat in Rae Bareli. BJP leaders criticized the move, stating that the Gandhis have deserted their strongholds and predicting a blank for Congress in Uttar Pradesh. Despite this, Sonia Gandhi is expected to comfortably win the elections and become the second leader from the Nehru-Gandhi family to join the Rajya Sabha.
