Congress leader Rahul Gandhi during an interaction with Dipesh Chakrabarty, Representative of University of Chicago, said he was proud that former prime ministers his grandmother Indira Gandhi and father Rajiv Gandhi were assassinated while standing for and defending the sense of India that is central to its civilisation and history.
"We believe in a certain sense of India and defend its certain political idea and philosophy. Elements of these are central themes in Indian civilization and history. I'm proud that my grandmother and father got killed while standing and defending something. It helps me understand them and my place and what I should be doing. There are no regrets,” said Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.
