After a long time, Priyanka Gandhi is now trying her luck in the elections. Congress has decided to field her in the by-election on Wayanad seat in Kerala. There is an atmosphere of enthusiasm among the party workers due to this decision. Leader Acharya Pramod Krishnam, who left Congress and joined BJP, commented on this.
The command of Congress should be handed over to Priyanka Gandhi
Former Congress leader Acharya Pramod Krishnam said that Priyanka Gandhi is the most popular face of the Congress. She should have been made the Congress President. She should have been handed over the reins of the Congress. It is worth noting that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has decided to remain an MP from Rae Bareli Lok Sabha seat. He will resign from Wayanad Lok Sabha seat. Rahul Gandhi won from Wayanad twice in a row. For the first time in 2019, he won easily from Wayanad. Priyanka Gandhi will contest the by-election here for the first time.
Congress does not trust Hindus-Acharya
Commenting on this, former Congress leader Acharya Krishnam said that efforts are being made to reduce Priyanka Gandhi's stature further by giving her a Lok Sabha ticket in the by-election. Still, I wish her all the best for the start of a new innings. But by making Priyanka contest from Wayanad, Congress has proved one thing that Congress does not trust Hindus. If she had faith in Hindus, she would have contested from somewhere else.
Priyanka entered active politics in 2019
It is worth noting that Priyanka Gandhi entered active politics in 2019. In the Lok Sabha elections held earlier this month, Rahul contested from Wayanad and Rae Bareli. He won both the seats. But now he is leaving the Wayanad seat. At the same time, after discussions of contesting from several parliamentary constituencies including Amethi, Rae Bareli and Varanasi, Priyanka will now start electoral politics from Wayanad in Kerala.
Kerala is one state where the Congress performed well in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections as well as in 2019. Priyanka joined active politics in 2019 and was made general secretary in-charge of crucial eastern Uttar Pradesh and then general secretary in-charge of the entire state in January.
