The highly anticipated Amethi Lok Sabha election results are being closely watched, as incumbent Smriti Irani is trailing behind Congress candidate Kishori Lal Sharma. This is a major shift in the stronghold of the Congress party, which was once considered an impenetrable fort. Local politician Kishori Lal Sharma's popularity and expertise in navigating caste dynamics may play a key role in determining the outcome of this highly contested seat.
The much-awaited results of the Amethi Lok Sabha Election 2024 are underway and as of current trends, Congress candidate Kishori Lal Sharma is leading by a margin of 57,911 votes. BJP's Smriti Irani, who won the Lok Sabha Election 2019 from the same constituency, is trailing behind. The results are being closely watched by political enthusiasts as Amethi is considered a stronghold of the Gandhi family. Stay tuned for live updates on the election results.
The long-awaited decision by Congress on the Amethi Lok Sabha seat has finally been made, with party loyalist Kishori Lal Sharma chosen to take on BJP leader Smriti Irani. The move puts an end to months of speculation and adds to the already intense political battle in the constituency. The choice of Sharma, who has a long history with the Gandhi family, brings an interesting dynamic to the race and is sure to draw attention in the upcoming elections.
The Congress party has chosen Kishori Lal Sharma, a trusted aide of the Gandhi family, as its candidate for the Amethi Lok Sabha seat. Sharma, who has had a long association with the Gandhi family, will be taking on the BJP's Smriti Irani in the constituency. This move by the Congress comes after party president Rahul Gandhi decided to contest from Rae Bareli instead of Amethi, which has been the party's stronghold for many years. Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, another Congress leader and member of the Gandhi family, has welcomed Sharma's candidature, highlighting his strong ties with the family.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi files his nomination papers from the family bastion of Raebareli, expressing his emotional connection to the constituency and its importance to his family. Despite criticism from the BJP for not contesting from the contentious seat of Amethi, Gandhi states that he sees no difference between the two constituencies and seeks the support of his loved ones in the ongoing fight for justice and democracy. His nomination, along with that of Amethi candidate Kishori Lal Sharma, has sparked controversy and accusations from the BJP, who claim Gandhi is afraid to take on his former opponent, Smriti Irani.
After much speculation, Congress has announced that Rahul Gandhi will be contesting from Rae Bareli while his mother and party leader Sonia Gandhi will be campaigning in Amethi, a seat that has been held by the Gandhi family for decades. Kishori Lal Sharma, a close associate of the family, has been chosen as the Congress candidate for Amethi. Sharma played a pivotal role in securing Sonia Gandhi's historic win from the constituency in 1999 and has been a loyal Congress worker in the region for several years.
After much speculation and suspense, the Congress party has announced its candidacy for the Amethi seat, choosing Kishori Lal Sharma, a close aide of the Gandhi family. This decision has been seen as a sign of defeat by the Congress party, with Smriti Irani, the BJP candidate and current MP from Amethi, already claiming victory. In a surprising move, Rahul Gandhi has been fielded for the Raebareli seat, which his mother Sonia Gandhi held.
The Congress party has finally announced its candidates for the high-profile seats of Amethi and Raebareli in Uttar Pradesh for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Kishori Lal Sharma will be contesting from Amethi, while Rahul Gandhi will fight from Raebareli, a seat traditionally held by the Gandhi family. This move has come as a surprise as Rahul has not been fielded from his familiar Amethi seat, where he had been defeated by BJP leader Smriti Irani in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
Despite wanting a member of the Gandhi family to contest from the Amethi Lok Sabha seat, Kishori Lal Sharma has accepted the Congress' order to fight the election. A close aide of the Gandhi family, Sharma has been entrusted with the responsibility to reclaim the seat in the upcoming elections. He has declared his loyalty to the Gandhi family and will be filing his nomination papers later in the day.
Despite his loyalty to the Gandhi family, Kishori Lal Sharma has been fielded by the Congress from Amethi, a longtime stronghold of the Gandhi family that was lost in the 2019 election. Sharma has stated that he would prefer to see a Gandhi family member fight for the seat, but he will not refuse to follow the party's orders. This decision has sparked discussions about the fate of the Congress party and the future of the Gandhi family in Indian politics.
