Rahul Gandhi Stops Priyanka While Entering Parliament. WATCH This Video To Know Why

Rahul Gandhi paused his sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra's entry into Lok Sabha to capture a special moment. Priyanka became a lawmaker after winning Wayanad's Lok Sabha seat.

Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi on Thursday stopped his sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra before entering the Lok Sabha. Rahul and Priyanka, who have never shied away from showing their affection as siblings in public, recorded the moment on camera as Priyanka embarked on her journey as a lawmaker. Rahul Gandhi stopped her and clicked a photo of his sister right before she entered the Parliament and took oath as the Wayanad MP.

Priyanka Gandhi, who won the Wayanad Lok Sabha seat in the recent bypoll, took oath at 11 AM on Thursday. Along with her, another Congress leader, Ravindra Chavan, also took oath as the MP from Maharashtra's Nanded. However, shortly after their swearing-in, the Lok Sabha had to be adjourned amid disruptions over the issues of Adani bribery charges and the violence related to the Sambhal Shahi Jama Masjid survey.

Priyanka Gandhi clinched the Wayanad Lok Sabha seat with a thumping margin of over four lakh votes, surpassing her brother’s victory margin from the 2024 general elections. The 52-year-old Congress general secretary defeated CPI(M)-led LDF candidate Sathyan Mokeri by securing more than six lakh votes, making a strong electoral debut.

After taking oath, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said, "The priority will be to raise important issues concerning the nation...There is nothing above the Constitution for us and we will continue to fight for it."
