00:00 Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and party chief Priyanka Gandhi will not contest Lok Sabha elections
00:07 with Amethi and Rayabareli.
00:08 Sources have confirmed this.
00:10 According to sources, Priyanka Gandhi is focusing on handling the propaganda campaign of the
00:14 party in the country.
00:15 Rahul Gandhi says that he only wants to contest elections with Wayanad.
00:19 For the past few days, it was being argued that Rahul Gandhi can contest elections with
00:24 Amethi this time as well.
00:26 In this case, Priyanka can be given a ticket from her mother Sonia Gandhi's Rayabareli seat.
00:31 The party was also sent this proposal from the UP Congress.
00:35 After this, it was also discussed in the Congress Election Committee meeting.
00:39 The party leadership had proposed to Amethi and Priyanka Gandhi to contest Rayabareli
00:44 elections in front of Rahul Gandhi.
00:46 But both the leaders refused to contest these seats.
00:50 In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, Rahul Gandhi contested elections with two seats, Wayanad
00:56 of Kerala and Amethi of UP.
00:58 Sonia Gandhi contested elections with Rayabareli seat of UP.
01:01 Rahul had to face defeat in front of Smriti Irani from Amethi, which is the home of Congress.
01:07 Sonia won the elections with heavy votes from Rayabareli.
01:11 This time, Sonia has been elected from Rajasthan as a Rajya Sabha member.
01:14 In this way, the discussion of Priyanka Gandhi's elections with Rayabareli was going on for
01:18 a long time.
01:19 However, Priyanka Gandhi's husband Robert Wadhwa is claiming Amethi seat.
01:24 Recently, he had reached Haridwar.
01:26 During this time, he was asked whether he would contest elections with Amethi.
01:29 In response, he said, "I am getting a call from the whole country that I should join active
01:33 politics because I have always been in the middle of the people of the country.
01:38 I have gone there to campaign since 1999.
01:41 We had won Sonia Gandhi from there.
01:44 People always want me to be in their area.
01:47 But the way the discussion was going on about Amethi and Rayabareli, it seems that Rahul
01:53 and Priyanka will not contest elections with these seats.
01:56 Here, Robert Wadhwa, who is claiming his candidacy from Amethi.
01:59 But now, it will be a matter of thinking about who will be in the field from Rayabareli seat.
02:04 Thank you.
02:09 Thank you.
