As the nation remembers former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi on her death anniversary, Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra led the tributes, reflecting on her grandmother's unwavering commitment to India. She highlighted Indira Gandhi's enduring legacy of dedication and the lessons that continue to guide today's generation.

In a heartfelt post on the social media platform X, Priyanka shared a video homage, expressing, "Your dedication to the country, your sacrifices, the lessons learnt from you and the values you have given us will always guide us. Salute to your martyrdom." Her sentiments were echoed by Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, who also paid tribute at Indira Gandhi's memorial, Shakti Sthal.

Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge also commemorated the late Prime Minister, lauding her role in preserving India's unity and fostering a progressive nation. Born on November 19, 1917, Indira Gandhi served as India's first woman Prime Minister until her assassination in 1984 by her own bodyguards, an event which triggered widespread anti-Sikh riots.
