new Delhi. With the entry of Priyanka Gandhi in the field of politics, discussions about contesting her 2019 Lok Sabha election have also started. The discussion in the corridor of Congress is hot that Sonia Gandhi does not contest elections due to health reasons, Priyanka can be dropped from Rae Bareli.
At the same time, there is speculation that the party can withdraw Priyanka from the Varanasi against Modi. Senior party leader and former Union minister Kapil Sibal tweeted this direction as well. In 2014, Congress candidate Ajay Rai has said that Rahul Gandhi should send a proposal for this.
Kapil Sibal tweeted, “Modiji and Amit Shah had said, Congress free India! Now after coming to Priyanka Gandhi’s Uttar Pradesh (East) we will see … .. free Varanasi? ……. free Gorakhpur? These days there are speculations that Priyanka can be pulled from any seat in Eastern UP in political corridors. There is also a discussion that in the fight against Prime Minister Modi, he can make the party his face from Varanasi.
However, it is certain that Priyanka will be in the Lok Sabha elections only when Sonia Gandhi decides not to contest elections. In Amethi, when Rahul Gandhi was asked whether Priyanka will fight in the elections, he said that it depends on him.
Priyanka will be in charge of 43 seats of the lot!
Along with Eastern Uttar Pradesh, seats of Lucknow can also be included in Priyanka Charge Area. There will be about 43 seats in their part. Priyanka’s Kheeri, Dhaurah, Hardoi, Sitapur, Mishrikh, Mohanlalganj, Lucknow, Unnao, Kausambi, Allahabad, Phulpur, Rae Bareli, Amethi, Pratapgarh, Sultanpur, Akbarpur, Faizabad, Barabanki, Kaisarganj, Bahraich, Shravasti, Gonda, Basti, Dumriaganj, Bansgaon, Santakbirnagar, Maharajganj, Salempur, Deoria, Kushinagar, Ballia, Ghosi, Azamgarh, Lalgonj, Fishshahar, Jaunpur, Ambedkar Nagar, Ghazipur, Chandauli, Varanasi, Robertsganj, Bhadohi and Irjapur Parliament is expected to assume charge of areas.
Waking up for years demanded in active politics
The demand for Priyanka in active politics in Amethi has been rising for the past decade. Senior Congress leader Jagdish Piyush says that by becoming a general secretary of Priyanka, there will be a wave of Congress in the state. People in Priyanka see the image of Indira. Congress District President Yogendra Mishra says, like the Amethi-Rae Bareli, the wave of Congress will sweep across the country.
Young voters eye
By throwing Priyanka in politics, Congress has indicated the strategy of combining young Brahmin and other backward castes with the help of young voters. Apart from this, Scindia, as a general secretary, is responsible for the responsibility of Uttar Pradesh that he has got this promotion for the crucial role in the Madhya Pradesh election campaign. In the elections of Madhya Pradesh, Scindia emerged as the most crowded mob of the Congress. His popularity was particularly visible in the youth section.
Purvanchal therefore important
Prior to handing Priyanka Gandhi the command of Eastern Uttar Pradesh, it is not only important that PM Modi’s constituency Varanasi and Yogi Adityanath’s political work Gorakhpur come in it. Puravchal is also important that almost all the seats except BJP’s allies in 2014, leaving Azamgarh in this region with the decisive role of Brahmin voters. In such a situation, it is not an easy challenge for the Congress to return to the Congress in Uttar Pradesh, by climbing the BJP’s ground for Priyanka and the strength of SP-BSP’s social equations.
