Didn't want Rajiv in politics, scared he'd be killed: Sonia
Sonia Gandhi has said she did not want her husband and former PM Rajiv Gandhi to join politics as she feared he would be killed after her mother-in-law Indira Gandhi's assassination in 1984. "[My opposition] was selfish, but I also felt that they would have got him," she added. Rajiv Gandhi was assassinated in Tamil Nadu in 1991.
