Wayanad: All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra signed her nomination papers today as part of her campaign for the Wayanad Lok Sabha bypolls, scheduled for November 13, 2024. The by-election was called after her brother, Rahul Gandhi, vacated the seat following his victory in Rae Bareli during the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Priyanka, accompanied by local Congress leaders, is set to lead a roadshow through Kalpetta later today, with Rahul Gandhi joining her. Senior Congress leaders and Chief Ministers from Congress-ruled states are expected to attend the event.
Rahul Gandhi arrived in Wayanad earlier in the day and will participate in the roadshow at the Kalpetta bus stand alongside Priyanka.
The duo, along with their mother, Sonia Gandhi, reached Wayanad on October 22 after arriving in Mysuru, where they were welcomed by Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar.
