After becoming the Secretary-General of the Congress Party in 2019, Priyanka Gandhi has not participated in any elections so far. He limited himself to promoting his family and party. This time she is trying her luck on her brother Wayanad’s seat. Rahul Gandhi won a landslide victory from Wayanad in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. He also won a landslide victory in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Priyanka contests elections for the first time
In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Rahul Gandhi won Wayanad in Kerala and Rai Bareilly seats in Uttar Pradesh. He chose Rae Bareli, the traditional seat of the Gandhi family, and left Wayanad. Congress has since given the ticket to Rahul’s sister Priyanka Gandhi. Priyanka is contesting elections for the first time. The BJP fielded naval haridas against him.
‘Will strengthen relationship between Rahul and Wayanad’
Recently, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra wrote a letter to the people of Wayanad. Here she said I will strengthen the relationship between Rahul and Wayanad. This is my first visit as a public representative, but not my first visit as a fighter. Prior to her nomination, Priyanka said she first campaigned for her father, Rajiv Gandhi, in 1989 when she was 17 years old. Thereafter, he demanded votes for his mother Sonia and brother Rahul. This time she’s looking for support for herself.
