Congress is making a well-planned strategy for the election campaign in Kerala

The Congress leadership is implementing a well thought-out plan for Priyanka Gandhi Vadra’s first election campaign. The fact that so many leaders attended her first campaign appearance on Wednesday further demonstrated the party’s reluctance to take any risks.

However, several spontaneous moments also occurred. For example, on her way back to the hotel, Priyanka stopped by a residence in Sultan Bathery. I feel as if I’ve won the lotto. Thressia Kumarankulam exclaimed, “It is simply unthinkable that a national leader, who is also Indira Gandhi’s granddaughter, came to our home at our request.”

It’s certain that the advertising will highlight Priyanka’s similarity to Indira. “Indira for India, Priyanka for Wayanad” was written on a number of the posters that were displayed.

Priyanka, the most recent member of the Nehru-Gandhi family to join political politics, comes off as kind and compassionate. We were unable to meet Indira Gandhi, and now her granddaughter is running for office here,” said Maimoona D, a Kalpetta-based Mahila Congress employee.

Annamma, who works as a clerk at a private school in Meppadi and survived the Chooralmala landslide, took a day off to see Priyanka in Kalpetta. “Priyanka’s candidacy gives me hope despite the uncertainty surrounding the resettlement of Wayanad landslide victims,” she said. At the moment, Annamma resides in a leased home in Munderi, close to Kalpetta.

Rahul Gandhi, who served as Wayanad’s representative before resigning to make room for Rae Bareli, which forced a by-election, was unable to leave his stamp on the constituency’s progress, opposition parties have been eager to emphasize.

During this year’s Lok Sabha election, Rahul’s absence from Wayanad and his inability to work with the Congress-ruled Karnataka government to overcome the Bandipur night travel restriction were brought up. His winning margin decreased from 4.3 lakh in 2019 to around 3.6 lakh as a result. Rahul is also accused by the CPM and the BJP of abandoning Wayanad and pressuring citizens to cast ballots in the by-election.

Nonetheless, the Congress leadership is certain that Priyanka’s candidacy would disprove the criticism. In order to guarantee one of the biggest win margins in the nation’s political history, a complex campaign is being developed.

The fact that Priyanka’s whole immediate family was there on Wednesday was just the beginning. In addition to Rahul, the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, and her mother, Sonia Gandhi, the president of the Congress Parliamentary Party, Priyanka was joined by her husband, Robert Vadra, and son, Raihan.

In the next days, KPCC leaders will lead the campaign in Wayanad. Priyanka is scheduled to visit the constituency on October 28 and 29, according to reports.
