Posted on 22nd May 2024 12:32 pm by rohit kumar

Amidst the Lok Sabha elections, there were speculations that Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi would start her political journey by contesting elections for the first time from Rae Bareli. However, when Rahul Gandhi filed his nomination from Rae Bareli, this claim was also completely rejected. Now the question is, whose decision was it not to field Congress' Priyanka Gandhi? Now Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge has broken his silence on this. 

 

Priyanka Gandhi herself took the decision

In an interview with PTI, Kharge said, 'This was the decision of Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi herself. However, Kharge has also justified Priyanka Gandhi not contesting the elections. Kharge said that Sonia Gandhi has been in politics for 30 years and she knows who should contest elections from where.

 

Priyanka our star campaigner

The Congress chief further said that 'Priyanka is also our star campaigner along with Rahul Gandhi because Sonia Gandhi ji's health is not good. He is in demand and thousands of people come to listen to him. They both are our assets and if we invest all our assets in one place, then what will happen to others because they also have to help others? Whatever decision he has taken, we welcome it.

 

Congress is deliberately contesting elections on fewer seats

Kharge said that Congress has deliberately contested fewer seats in this Lok Sabha election so that the INDI alliance can be kept together and BJP can be defeated. The Congress is contesting 328 seats, its lowest ever, leaving more than 200 seats for other opposition parties in the INDI alliance.
