New Delhi [India], October 25 (ANI): Launching a blistering attack against Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra over her by-poll candidature for Wayanad Lok Sabha seat, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Tarun Chugh said that the ‘jiji-jija’ couple after looting the farmers in Haryana have reached Wayanad as tourists and that they have nothing to do with the pain of the locals.
“After looting the farmers of Haryana, the ‘jiji-jija’ couple have now reached Wayanad as tourists. They have nothing to do with the pain of the locals, or with the development of the area. Where were they when Wayanad was facing floods and people were in crisis? Today they have come to ask for votes,” said the BJP leader.
Reacting to Bharatiya Janata Party’s allegations that Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge was kept outside while Congress candidate from Wayanad, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra was filing her nominations in the presence of other party leaders, Tarun Chugh said, “Party’s national president Mallikarjun Kharge was insulted only for belonging to SC community. Congress has always insulted Dalits and tribals…”
Notably, Priyanka Gandhi filed her nomination papers at the district collector’s office at Kalpetta on Wednesday.
Prior to her nomination, Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka held a massive roadshow in Kalpetta town in Kerala and addressed a public rally where she expressed her gratitude to the people of Wayanad for supporting her brother in his difficult times.
The Wayanad seat was vacated by the Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi who retained the Rae Bareli Lok Sabha Constituency.
The by-poll in the Wayanad is scheduled to be held on November 13. (ANI)
