HarperCollins India has announced the publication of Sonia Gandhi’s memoir, titled ‘Belonging: A Journey of Love’, scheduled for release on November 10, 2026. The announcement follows a dispute after former publisher Penguin backed out of negotiations over disagreements concerning content revisions and verification demands. The Congress party had earlier alleged political pressure over sensitive subjects in the manuscript, while Penguin stated it had requested fact-checking prior to publication. Following the breakdown of negotiations with Penguin, HarperCollins acquired the publishing rights for India. The publishing house described the memoir as an account covering themes of love, identity, duty, and India’s political journey. An official media embargo will remain in effect until the scheduled release date in November, when the book will hit bookstores.
