Congress leader Sonia Gandhi described the Emergency as a mistake and said her mother-in-law, then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, later regretted it. In her book "Belonging: A Journey of Love," Sonia writes that controlling Sanjay Gandhi could have reduced the damage caused. She believes Indira Gandhi was a democrat at heart and uncomfortable during the Emergency. The family was divided on the decision, with Rajiv Gandhi opposing it.
