New Delhi : With enterprise swinging like a pendulum for days, Congress on Friday blazoned the candidature of Rahul Gandhi from Rae Bareli Lok Sabha seat vacated by his mama Sonia Gandhi, while his family Priyanka Gandhi Vadra refused to come under pressure to fight the pates.

Congress choose K.L. Sharma to fight from Amethi, which Rahul lost to BJP’s Smriti Irani by around 55,000 votes in 2019. rather, Rahul chose to fight from Raebareli, which Sonia has been representing since 2004. Sharma has been coordinating the Gandhis administrative work in both these seats for times.
