Earlier in the day, Congress announced the candidatures of Rahul Gandhi from the Rae bareilly constituency and Kishori lal Sharma in Amethi constituency in Uttar Pradesh. the announcement was made just hours before the deadline to file nominations for the two seats that are gearing up to go to poll on May 20. The deadline to file for the two seats was today, May 3.

Sharma has been a close confidant of the Gandhi family and has been cosistently involved in the election management of the Lok Sabha Polls for the year 2024.

This announcement concludes weeks of speculation surrounding the potential electoral debut of party General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. Mr. Sharma has adeptly overseen the management of both Amethi and Rae Bareli, serving the Gandhi family for over 25 years.

The significance of Rae Bareli’s selection lies in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, where it stood as the sole seat clinched by the Congress in Uttar Pradesh. Sonia Gandhi emerged victorious, defeating her BJP counterpart Dinesh Pratap Singh by a substantial margin of approximately 1,67,000 votes. Ms. Gandhi secured 5,34,918 votes (55.80%), overshadowing the BJP nominee who garnered 3,67,740 votes (38.36%).
