Who is Antonia Maino? and why it is trending in India?

Who is Antonia Maino?

Antonia Maino was born on the 9th December 1946 to parents Stefano and Paola Maino in Lusiana, Italy. She was Christian and had been raised in a traditional Catholic way in the town of Turin. After completing her primary education, she moved for language classes in Cambridge [she had not done graduation or post-graduation in Cambridge] England. Her father was Stefano, who had established a little construction business. Before that, he was a prisoner of war in Russia who got captured during second world war as he was a loyal supporter of the Italian Fascist leaded Mussolini [He was as cruel and monster as Hitler and while fighting with Europe and America during the second world war, he was with Hitler]. When she was studying in England she worked as a bar attendant in the Varsity rooftop bar.

Antonia Maino, who was a bar attendant [not mentioned as a negative way] and whose father was in Mussolini’s army [It is like someone worked for Hitler and follow him], is today is known as Mrs. Sonia Gandhi and appointed as president of India’s oldest political party, Indian National Congress. Yes, Sonia Gandhi’s real name was Antonia Maino, which later renamed Sonia Maino by her father and after her marriage with Rajiv Gandhi [ Rajiv’s father is Firoz shah who had also changed his surname to Firoz shah Gandhi and that is how Gandhi surname came in Nehru dynasty], she became Sonia Rajiv Gandhi.

Sonia Gandhi’s old name is trending in India because Mr. Arnab Goswami who had studied in M.A. at Oxford University and is Managing director, editor-in-chief, owner and co-founder of Republic TV had mentioned her actual name on a TV show and blamed her that she has a double standard and biased towards a particular community.

After Mr. Arnab’s allegations, last night some congress worker attacked him when he was returning home with his wife. For this attack, Arnab blamed Mrs. Sonia Gandhi and registered FIR. 

Now, the first question is why congress and Sonia Gandhi have a problem with this name? 

[though they do mention Yogi Aditynath’s real name in public many times] There are many reasons for this. First, it confirms the identity of Mrs. Sonia Gandhi that she belongs to a particular religion which is not the religion of majority voters of India. Even because of this reason initially, Mrs. Indira Gandhi was against the marriage of his son Rajiv with Sonia. But later Amitabh Bachchan’s family helped Sonia to understand Indian culture and make her able to face Mrs. Indira Gandhi, Prime minister of India. For the same reason Rajiv Gandhi’s father Firoz shah Gandhi also changed his religion and name and even today Gandhi's family has never remembered Firoz shah, Gandhi, only because of political reasons. And the irony is congress party considered a secular party whose leaders not only changed their name but also changed their religion to get more votes.

The second question is, why Mr. Arnab now blaming Mrs. Sonia Gandhi for Palghar Mob lynching? 

The reason is Mrs. Sonia Gandhi’s past comments about mob lynching and Batla house encounter. In the past, we have seen many mob lynching and whenever its news came, so-called secular film stars and political parties like congress start attacks on the central government. Some people start returning their awards and intolerance words start trending. But after the Palghar incident, no one even bothers to condemn.

According to some leaders of Congress, when the story of the Batla House encounter was narrated to Mrs. Sonia Gandhi, she started crying for those terrorists, who even possess guns and had killed one policeman during encounter [on this incident Batla House movie also released in 2019]. When Rohith Vemula had done suicide, according to many political parties and student unions, the government is responsible. When some radicalize people kill beef sellers, all so-called secular people defame India and the government for targeting a particular community and called government communal.

But two sadhus and one driver, total three-person are killed in mob lynching and state government [congress is a partner with Shiv-Sena and NCP in state government] defending by saying that there were rumors of thieves and villagers had killed them in misunderstanding. But the main question is though it was the reason government and administration have a complete failure here. Why there was fear of thieves and police has not acted? Even when this incident has happened, why police were not able to prevent that incident, though many police officers were actually present there. Later CM of Maharashtra only given clarification that it is not communal, but what about the police officers? They also said that 101 [somewhere mentioned 110] people have arrested, so the first police allowed to happen this incident and later they arrested the same people. They also claimed that not a single person from arrested people are not belonging to a minority religion. But this is all in the police’s hand whether they have instruction to arrest them or not. [May be this incident do not have anything related to religion, but the way CM is defending this incident may not right thing]

A couple of things can be observed in the current scenario. Film stars are not trustworthy because they raise voice for the selective incidents. No profession is small but congress who always call our Prime minister "chai vala" though he has served as Chief Minister for 12 years and since 2014 is serving as Prime Minister, but they do not accept that Mrs. Sonia Gandhi was once worked as a bar attendant[ which should not be considered as a bad thing and neither she should ashamed of]. Congress considers as a secular party, but its leader has afraid to mention the original religion.
