Varanasi: Priyanka Gandhi Vadra to Campaign for Congress State President Ajay Rai
Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra is set to campaign and lead a roadshow in support of Ajay Rai, the party’s state president and candidate for Varanasi, on May 25.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is seeking a third consecutive term from Varanasi.
Ajay Rai confirmed on Wednesday, “Yes, Priyanka Gandhi will campaign and hold a roadshow in Varanasi on May 25.”
Rai has been actively campaigning in the area for the past few weeks.
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra is a prominent figure among the Congress’s star campaigners. Alongside her brother Rahul Gandhi and other senior party leaders, she has been campaigning across various states.
