BJP leader Dushyant Gautam launched a scathing attack on Congress and Priyanka Gandhi over their decision to contest in the upcoming Wayanad by-elections. Speaking to ANI, Gautam alleged that residents were disillusioned with Rahul Gandhi's tenure, wherein he purportedly failed to deliver on development, security, or infrastructure.

Eager to capitalize on this discontent, Gautam expressed confidence that BJP would secure victory, as Wayanad voters yearn for tangible progress. Meanwhile, BJP spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari accused Priyanka Gandhi of strategically selecting safer electoral regions, notably where Muslim voters constitute a significant portion of the electorate.

As Priyanka Gandhi lodged her nomination papers amidst a grand roadshow, watched by Congress stalwarts, the political climate in Wayanad is charged with anticipation. With elections slated for November 13, political dynamics in Wayanad promise to unfold dramatically, parallel to statewide by-polls.
