In an unprecedented turn of events, Wayanad is poised to have both an official and unofficial voice in Parliament. On Wednesday, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi called for the backing of his sister, Priyanka Gandhi, as she enters the political arena for the first time.
Addressing a large crowd in Kalpetta, Rahul promised steadfast dedication to Wayanad's populace. Despite his role as an ex-MP, he declared allegiance as an 'unofficial MP,' working alongside Priyanka for the district's welfare.
Priyanka Gandhi officially filed her nomination papers, witnessed by prominent Congress figures. She will confront LDF's Sathyan Mokeri and BJP's Navya Haridas in the November 13 bypoll, marking a significant chapter in this district's electoral history.
