Lok Sabha Election 2024: "Just as he fled from Amethi, he will abandon Wayanad," a significant assault on Rahul Gandhi by PM Modi in Maharashtra. During his address in Maharashtra, PM Modi remarked, "Rahul Gandhi contested elections in both Amethi and Wayanad during the 2019 Lok Sabha polls. While he suffered defeat in Amethi, he emerged victorious in Wayanad.
During the Lok Sabha Election, Prime Minister Narendra Modi criticized Rahul Gandhi, stating that the Congress scion is encountering difficulties even in Wayanad. Similar to his departure from Amethi, he will likely have to relinquish Wayanad as well. Rahul, a Congress leader, is contesting this year's Lok Sabha elections from the Wayanad seat in Kerala. In 2019, he suffered defeat in Amethi, traditionally a Congress stronghold in Uttar Pradesh, losing to BJP leader and Union Minister Smriti Irani.
