The Kerala unit of the Congress party is witnessing an unprecedented wave of excitement as Priyanka Gandhi files her nomination for the Wayanad constituency. Leaders anticipate this moment as a pivotal event, eagerly anticipating her presence in the Lok Sabha. Jebi Mather, a Congress MP, emphasized the exhilaration spreading across Wayanad and the broader region.

Kishori Lal Sharma, another Congress MP, echoed the sentiments, expressing joy over Priyanka Gandhi's prospective debut in Parliament. Sharma drew parallels to the enthusiasm seen in her work in Amethi and Rae Bareli, asserting her influential presence in Indian politics. Congress veteran Pramod Tiwari lauded Gandhi as an exceptional talent destined to leave a lasting impact in Parliament.

Taking on formidable opponents such as the BJP's Navya Haridas and LDF's Sathyan Mokeri in the by-poll set for November 13, Gandhi's candidacy is seen as a strategic move. Holding a legacy of maintaining the family's political bastions, her potential victory would make her the third Gandhi to enter Parliament, reinforcing the Congress foothold in Kerala.
