Queen reoccupies the throne

Mrs. Sonia Gandhi resigned her LS seat. Her party called it a sacrifice. I was confused as to how it can be called sacrifice as she, in reply to a question, said that she will again fight from Raibareli and win and come back to LS. Her body language was clearly showing her defiant and aggressive reaction, and giving a clear message that she had given up LS seat under pressure and compelling circumstances. Such action can never be called a sacrifice.

I also consulted Oxford dictionary. It says that sacrifice is the act of giving up something valued for the sake of something more important and worthy. Now when she said that she will again fight for LS seat then how her act of resigning becomes a sacrifice? Now she has againg fought the election and is back in LS for the same post which she resigned. At least now it become clear that her resignation from LS seat was not a sacrifice but a political decision.

She is entitled to take any decision she likes, but is is unethical to tout such political decisions as sacrifice. It is an insult to the people of this country who respect Lord Buddha for his sacrifice. If prince Sidhdhartha had returned to occupy the throne then his act would not have been called a sacrifice and people would not have respected him. In this case the queen has reoccupied the throne and does not deserve any respect for this act which is wrongly being touted as sacrifice.
