Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, a prominent figure of the Nehru-Gandhi family, officially entered the race for a parliamentary seat by filing her nomination on Wednesday. As a member of a politically significant dynasty, her candidacy continues the family's longstanding impact on Indian politics.
Vadra is vying for the Wayanad seat in Kerala, previously held by her brother Rahul Gandhi, who vacated it after winning two seats in the national elections. Thousands attended her nomination roadshow, reflecting strong support for the Congress party in the region.
Rahul and Sonia Gandhi accompanied Vadra, underscoring the family's unity. Known for her eloquence, Priyanka emphasized her commitment to the people of Wayanad. The election is pivotal for Congress, which rebounded impressively under the Gandhi siblings' influence, challenging the Bharatiya Janata Party's dominance.
