The stage is set for Priyanka Gandhi Vadra's entry into Parliament as she files her nomination for the Wayanad Lok Sabha byelection in presence of top Congress leaders. The move has sparked enthusiasm among party workers in Wayanad and marks the Congress leader's electoral debut, five years after she entered active politics. With her candidature, Gandhi's supporters have put up posters in the constituency declaring her as "Wayanad's beloved."
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Congress general secretary and sister of Congress president Rahul Gandhi, will file her nomination papers for the Lok Sabha bypoll in Wayanad, Kerala. She will be joined by several other prominent Congress leaders for a roadshow before submitting her papers. This is the first time Sonia, Rahul, and Priyanka are campaigning together for an election in Kerala, with a focus on projecting Priyanka as the 'darling of Wayanad'. With the bypoll taking place in the aftermath of devastating landslides in the region, the relief measures will also be a major topic in the election campaign.
