Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay may attend the formal launch ceremony of the memoir of Sonia Gandhi, leader of India's main opposition party Congress. The information came in a report by The New Indian Express, citing several Congress sources.
The launch ceremony is scheduled to be held in New Delhi tomorrow, Monday (November 16).
Congress sources said on Saturday that Vijay is expected to be present at the formal launch of Sonia Gandhi's book 'Belonging: A Journey of Love'.
A report in The Times of India said a senior Congress leader stated that Chief Minister Vijay is travelling to New Delhi on Sonia Gandhi's personal invitation. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi also spoke to him by phone to invite him.
Party leaders said that, along with the chief ministers of Congress-ruled states, senior leaders of allied parties have also been invited to the ceremony.
Sonia Gandhi's book was published last Tuesday. It has already drawn a response, and discussion and criticism of the book are under way in India's political arena.
There is discussion that Vijay may meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his New Delhi visit. Telangana Today reported this information.
Chief Minister Vijay visited New Delhi last June. During that visit he took part in a meeting of NITI Aayog, the Government of India's think tank, and also met Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi.
