Rahul Gandhi In Raebareli: Senior Congress leader and candidate from Rae Bareli, Rahul Gandhi, arrived in Raebareli on Monday for the 2024 Lok Sabha election campaign. His sister and party leader, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, was also present when he reached Rae Bareli. Addressing a public rally in Raebareli, which is considered Congress’s bastion, the former Congress chief said that the grand old party has a 100-year-old relationship with Raebareli.
While speaking at the rally, Rahul Gandhi mentioned his grandmother and former PM Indira Gandhi, and his mother, Sonia Gandhi, saying that Sonia Gandhi did not like it when he called Indira Gandhi his second mother while having a conversation with her. The Wayanad MP asserted that he is contesting from the Raebareli seat as this is the 'karma-bhoomi' of both of his mothers.
"...Ours is a 100-year-old relationship with Raebareli. A few days ago, when I was sitting with my mother, I told her that I said in a video that I have two mothers - Sonia ji and Indira ji. My mother did not like this, but I explained to her that a mother is the one who shows the path to the child and also protects her. Both my mother and Indira Ji did this for me. This is the 'karma-bhoomi' of both my mothers. This is the reason I have come to contest from Raebareli,” the Congress leader said.
