Image description

A party activist uses his own blood to write a letter to Congress leader Sonia Gandhi in the eastern Indian city of Calcutta on May 19. The activist, Swarup Basu (L), had attempted self-immolation on May 18 to protest Italian-born Sonia Gandhi's resignation from party leadership after three Congress leaders said her foreign origin and inexperience made her unfit to rule the country, which goes to elections in September this year. Sonia Gandhi's resignation has triggered a wave of emotional protests from party activists all over the country. JS/TS
