June 2nd is a memorable day in the life of Sonia Gandhi. This is the day she finally got certified by Mr. Sangma as an Indian.

Flash back – Year 1998; Congress got a golden chance to form government at the centre following the fall of Vajpayee led 13 month old government (fall - courtesy Jayalalitha and Subramaniam Swamy’s Tea party). There was a buzz about Sonia becoming prime minister. Most of the Congress and country men accepted it. But not all.

Marathi strong man Pawar opposed this move citing Sonia’s foreign origins. People can understand Pawar’s stand as he always had an eye on PM chair. So people were not surprised by his move. What really surprised people were Sangma - the non-controversial, arguably the political face of North-East India joining hands with Pawar. The resulting Nationalist Congress Party became such a formidable force, that in 10 years it grown to win 9 seats in Parliament.

This fact was bothering Sonia for long. Then Pawar surrendered in Year 2004 and got cabinet seat in last UPA government. But Sangma was reluctant and maintaining distance from Sonia for almost a decade.

But finally, Sangma yielded and called on the Congress leader. Congress sweep and his daughters political future seems to be the factors driven him to Sonia’s door. The meeting was cordial and Sonia was overjoyed by his unexpected gift.

A certificate stating in Hindi, English and all North-Eastern languages that Sonia is 100 % Indian. An emotional Sonia immediately ordered her son Rahul to frame that in Congress head quarters in Delhi.

If this certificate works well we can expect Sangma’s daughter landing in some plum post in Delhi. Everyone knows India is more Dynastocracy than Democracy.
