Congress' Rahul Gandhi Vacates Wayanad Seat, Sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra To Contest Bypoll
In India, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has decided to relinquish his Lok Sabha seat from Kerala's Wayanad, paving the way for his sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra to make her electoral debut by contesting the bypoll there. The Congress leader, who won from both Wayanad and Uttar Pradesh's Rae Bareli, said," I have an emotional connection with Rae Bareli and Wayanad. And in the last five years, I was the Wayanad MP, and all the people there gave me love – people from all parties. I am thankful from the heart for that, and I will remember it for the rest of my life.” He opted to retain Rae Bareli, with Priyanka vowing not to let Wayanad feel his absence. The BJP slammed the decision, calling Congress a "family business" with the Gandhis keeping seats within the family.
