Smriti vs Rahul 2.0? Congress likely to break silence on Amethi, Rae Bareli Lok Sabha seats soon

Описание: Congress may soon break its silence over Rae Bareli and Amethi Lok Sabha constituencies. Union Minister Smriti Irani has been bashing Congress for being not announcing its candidate from Amethi. Sources have revealed that Rahul Gandhi may contest elections from Amethi once again. If Rahul fights from Amethi, a fierce ‘Smriti vs Rahul 2.0’ is likely in the constituency wrested by BJP in 2019. Samajwadi Party Chief Akhilesh Yadav also dropped a hint of Rahul’s candidature from Amethi. However, there were speculations that Priyanka’s husband Robert Vadra may contest from Amethi. Other than that, Priyanka Gandhi is also likely to file her nomination from Rae Bareli Lok Sabha constituency. According to the sources, the final decision will be taken after April 26 and nominations can be filed next week. Notably, Rae Bareli has been a bastion of the Gandhi family since 1960, with both Feroze Gandhi and Indira Gandhi having represented it. Sonia Gandhi has been the MP from the constituency since she won the 2006 by poll. With Sonia moving to the Upper House, the Congress is likely to field Priyanka Gandhi. Wayanad, from where Rahul Gandhi is contesting, will go to polls in the second phase on April 26. Congress will contest 17 seats and the Samajwadi Party the remaining 63 seats in the electorally crucial state. Amethi and Rae Bareli Lok Sabha constituencies will vote in the fifth phase of the Lok Sabha elections on May 20.
