Priyanka plays Nehru-Gandhi family card in Rae Bareli

Priyanka’s brother, Rahul Gandhi, who lost 2019 poll from neighbouring Amethi to BJP’s Smriti Irani, is contesting 2024 Lok Sabha election from Rae Bareli.

She launched the poll campaign for her brother here in Rae Bareli, about 80 km southeast of the state capital, addressing over 12 public meetings and speaking to mediapersons on issues including the prime minister’s remarks about Sam Pitroda’s controversial statements and his attacks on Congress and Rahul Gandhi. She said that that remarks made by someone from the USA were being exploited to create a particular atmosphere.

“PM raises useless issues. I challenge him to address critical issues like unemployment, rising inflation, and crimes against women,” she said to a news agency in Rae Bareli.
