Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will keep the Rae Bareli Lok Sabha seat in Uttar Pradesh and vacate the Wayanad from where his sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra will contest, Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge said.


Rahul Gandhi said it was a difficult decision for him as he has an emotional connection with both Rae Bareli and Wayanad. “The last five years as a member of Parliament from Wayanad have been a very fantastic and enjoyable experience. The people of Wayanad gave me support, energy to fight in a very difficult time. I will never forget that.”


“Promises we made to Wayanad will be fulfilled,” he said. “I won’t let the people of Wayanad feel Rahul’s absence,” Priyanka Gandhi said.
