SONIA STILL MAKES BED FOR INDIRA GANDHI!
Indira Gandhi is dead and gone for 25 years ago, but still Sonia Gandhi occasionally readies her bed to remember fondly the daily ritual of taking care of her beloved mother-in-law's comforts.
Saturday evening, Sonia Gandhi spent three hours from 5.30 arranging the late former prime minister's bedroom in the Indira Gandhi Memorial here. During the period, she did not take any calls as she went around dusting the room on her own.
A day before, she had visited the place with her daughter and made an inventory of the changes she felt necessary in Indira Gandhi's bedroom to tidy it up for her forthcoming birth anniversary on November 19.
Memorial staff say Sonia Gandhi makes trips to the place on Safdarjung Road where she lived with her mother-in-law for umpteen years. She arrives mostly in the evening after the visitors' hours are over and takes personal interest in everything displayed in the memorial. If some day she wants to come early, the memorial is shut for public for the sake of her security, the staff added.
