The Congress party revealed on Tuesday that Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, their general secretary, will be running for the Wayanad Lok Sabha bypoll next month. This will mark her first time participating in an election, as she had previously only campaigned for her brother Rahul Gandhi in both the Wayanad and Rae Bareli constituencies during the general elections. While Rahul emerged victorious in both seats, he ultimately decided to vacate Wayanad.
In an official statement, the Congress President, Mallikarjun Kharge, announced that Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has been approved as the party's candidate for the Lok Sabha by-election in Kerala. This news has been long-awaited by Priyanka, as she has expressed a desire to participate in elections for quite some time.
In addition to Priyanka's nomination, the Congress party also announced the candidacies of Rahul Mamkootathil for the Palakkad constituency and Ramya Haridas for the Chelakkara assembly constituency in the upcoming bypolls in Kerala. This decision was made in an effort to strengthen the party's presence in the state.
Overall, this announcement marks a significant moment for Priyanka Gandhi Vadra as she takes a step towards a more active role in politics. It will be interesting to see how she navigates her electoral debut in the Wayanad constituency.
