Smriti Irani now chases Rahul Gandhi in Wayanad
Smriti Irani, Rahul Gandhi's Amethi nemesis, will be in Wayanad on Thursday as the BJP state president files his nomination papers to take on the Gandhi family scion for the Lok Sabha 2024 polls. The BJP and Smriti Irani have kept the 'pressure' on Rahul Gandhi over Kerala's Wayanad, and don't want it to give a 'cakewalk' for him.
"Kaun kehta hai aasman mein suraakh ho nahi sakta...(Who says there can't be a hole in the sky...)," said Smriti Irani while proclaiming her victory in Amethi in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls.
It was a big victory as the BJP leader had defeated Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in his family bastion. Amethi was a pocket borough for the Congress party's first dynasty for years.
Rahul Gandhi continued to be an MP in the Lok Sabha despite being humbled at Amethi as he won Wayanad, a 'safe seat' because of the demography of the constituency in Kerala.
