Sonia Gandhi not becoming PM is the smallest of the titbits of Natwar Singhs biography, he confirms a lot more which was dismissed as conspiracy theory all this while. I must say there is no smike without fire. Here is the list taken from Wiki..... 1. The book is the first account by a close confidant of Sonia Gandhi where there is a mention of her father fighting in World War 2. He was captured by Soviet Union and held captive in one of the toughest prison in Russia Vladimir.[18] The book quotes Sonia Gandhi visiting the town Vladimir in the summer of 2005 with Natwar Singh. She was quoted to have said Natwar, my father, during the Second World War, was a prisoner of war in this room. It was intensely speculated in Orbassano that Stefano Maino had fascist sympathies. It was alleged that He had come from Asiago in the Veneto region where nationalism was strong. It was also speculated that he belonged to the Salo Republic that Mussolini set up in 1943 after he was ousted by his son-in-law and He even gave his three daughters Russian names in honour of the campaign in which he fought. [19]. 2. The book quotes that during the cabinet formation of UPA government in 2004. Sonia Gandhi confessed to Natwar Singh that she was under immense pressure from the Americans to not to appoint Natwar Singh as the External Affairs Minster. 3. The book also speaks about what is widely speculated issue, Edwina Mountbatten and Jawaharlal Nehrus relationship. The book quotes Nehru on his return from China visit in October 1954, stopped in Calcutta and the first letter he wrote on his China experience was to Edwina Mountbatten. As the Prime minister of India, this was against the Oath of secrecy he had taken.[20] 4. Indira Gandhi paying homage to Babur during her Afghanistan visit. The book quotes that She stood towards Baburs grave with her head slightly lowered and quoted to have said I have had my brush with history. 5. The book alleges that Sonia Gandhi wielded influence over the Media during the UPA reign. It alleges stories mysteriously appearing in TV channels, newspapers and magazines and quotes one Hindi newspaper refusing to publish Natwar Singhs article because the editor felt Soniaji would get angry.[21][22] 6. The book alleges that Sonia Gandhi spied on all the Cabinet ministers and there was a mole present in each of their office feeding information to 10 Janpath. 7. The book quotes Manmohan Singh was not happy with the arrangement to have a dyarchy and was unsatisfactory. He quoted to have said that he was a very lonely person. 8. The book alleges M G Ramachandran covertly supported and financed the LTTE and their cadres were being given military training in Tamil Nadu. The book states that M.G.R also considered Jaffna an extension of Tamil Nadu and had gifted 40 million rupees to the LTTE. 9. The book alleges that M.O.Mathai, personal secretary of Nehru was a C.I.A agent and received money for the same and that C.I.A had access to every paper passing through Nehrus cabinet.
