Congress explains why Rahul Gandhi contested from RaeBareli and not Amethi.
Jairam Ramesh Says:
“Rae Bareli has not only been Sonia ji's seat but also Indira Gandhi's seat. This is not a legacy but a responsibility, a duty.
Priyanka ji is campaigning vigorously and is alone shutting up Narendra Modi by answering his every lie with the truth. That is why it was necessary that she should not be limited to her constituency only. Priyanka ji will reach the House by contesting any by-election.
Today Smriti Irani's only identity is that she contests elections from Amethi against Rahul Gandhi. Now Smriti Irani has lost that fame too.”
