Will it be Priyanka vs Modi in Varanasi? |
Fueling the speculations about her contesting the lok sabha elections Priyanka Gandhi on Thursday while interacting with her party workers said if at all she needs to contest elections then why not Varanasi….against PM Modi. Speculations are rife that Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra may contest from Varanasi, the seat being re-represented by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the outgoing 16th lok sabha elections. As a quick response to party workers urging her to fight elections from her mother Sonia Gandhi`s parliamentary constituency Rae Bareli, a beaming Priyanka Gandhi said “Why not Varanasi?” If the younger Gandhi, sister of Congress President Rahul Gandhi jumps into the fray against Modi, then it would be the most high-profile contest of the current Lok Sabha polls. She made the crisp but significant remark at an interactive meeting with party booth workers, block presidents, gram panchayat and nagar panchayat heads at a guest house in Raebareli.
