Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has achieved a significant milestone, surpassing Sonia Gandhi's 2019 victory margin in the Rae Bareli constituency. He is now leading by an impressive 2,27,535 votes against his nearest rival, Dinesh Pratap Singh of the BJP.
Contesting from Rae Bareli for the first time, Rahul Gandhi maintained a strong lead over the BJP candidate since the start of vote counting. Singh, who is also a minister in the Yogi Adityanath cabinet, couldn't bridge the gap.
In the 2019 elections, Rahul's mother and former Congress president, Sonia Gandhi, won the Rae Bareli seat by a margin of 1,67,178 votes against Singh. However, Rahul previously represented the Amethi Lok Sabha seat from 2004 until his 2019 defeat to BJP's Smriti Irani, before winning a seat in Kerala's Wayanad.
