Congress MP Rahul Gandhi campaigned for his sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra in Mananthavady, Wayanad today for the Lok Sabha by-election. During this, he assured the people of Mananthwadi that Priyanka will prove to be the best MP for them. Rahul said that I am lucky that she is my sister and now you all will also be lucky. She will be like your sister, like your mother, like your daughter. I am confident that you are going to get the best MP.
Starting his address, Rahul Gandhi said, ‘This is the first time that I have come to a meeting to campaign for my sister. During my first election, my sister campaigned for me and has been doing so ever since. He campaigned for our mother. He also preached for our father. She has always been a campaigner and has never stood for election till now. It says a lot about him.’
Describing Priyanka Gandhi’s qualities to the public, Rahul said, ‘My sister thinks at a different level. Many politicians look at a farmer and label him just as a “farmer”. My sister wouldn’t say that. For her, he is a father, a brother. She will try to understand what the person is going through. She will talk to the farmer and ask how he feels about being deprived of fair prices; How did he feel when he could not pay his child’s school fees or when his mother was in ICU and he could not afford it?
The Congress MP further said, ‘Everyone puts labels on people. She’s a person who goes after those labels. She understands the beauty of the millions of labels everyone has. She can also see strengths in someone where others see weaknesses. I am lucky to have her as my sister and now you all will be lucky too.
Rahul said, ‘Sometimes I am more logical, but she is more emotional than me. So I am confident that you are going to get the best MP. I am saying this with full confidence. There can be no one better than him to become your MP. Wherever you look, there is anger, violence and hatred, but where is the humanity? She is the person who hugged the girl involved in our father’s murder and said that she felt very sorry for Nalini when they met. This is the kind of training he has received and this is the kind of politics India needs – politics of love and affection, not hatred.
Sometimes I’m more logical, but she’s more emotional than I am. That’s why I’m confident you are going to get the best possible MP. I’m saying it with conviction: no one’s better suited to be your Member of Parliament than her.

The Congress MP said that Priyanka has already made a list of things on which she has to focus. He said, ‘Where will we fight for the demands of Wayanad; Where will we strengthen the capabilities of Wayanad? This shows that they have started thinking and planning for Wayanad.
Rahul said, ‘Today the main fight in the country is the fight for the Constitution. It was not written with anger, hatred or ego, it was written by our freedom fighters who fought the British. He wrote it with humility and affection to promote harmony. He further said, ‘This is a fight of love vs hate, confidence vs insecurity and humility vs ego. If we really want to win this battle, we must help by eliminating ego and hatred from our hearts and replacing them with love and compassion.’
Priyanka ji has already made a few lists: what will we focus on in the future; where will we fight for Wayanad’s demands; where we will strengthen Wayanad’s capabilities. This shows she has already started thinking and planning for Wayanad.
