Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra became a Member of Parliament on November 28, contesting the Wayanad constituency in Kerala. She claims a formal seat in the Lok Sabha after she polled well in the recent by-polls, which made her a part of that historic family in Parliament, with her mother, Sonia Gandhi and brother Rahul Gandhi. It was taken during the Lok Sabha session so that an oath would be taken before the country. Priyanka took her affirmation in Hindi, holding a copy of the Constitution, which signifies her commitment to public work as well as democracy.

To this end, she may be believed to have injected the Congress party’s renewed push to regain its previous dominance in the Indian region and national Lower House. Priyanka Gandhi’s victory in the Wayanad constituency is even more symbolic as she replaced Rahul Gandhi, her brother, who was disqualified for the seat early this year. Her entry to the scene is seen as a strategic measure by the Congress leadership to lock down its stronghold in Kerala, a state dear to the party’s results. Her entry into Parliament can be viewed in a way that complements the Congress party’s plan to rejuvenate its leadership in view of the 2024 General Elections.
The political observers opined that Priyanka Gandhi’s aggressive participation will boost party workers and will further enhance the prospects of covering women and youth votes. The Gandhis remain an active political family in India even though three of its members are MPs simultaneously. The issues of concern for the representative of the House as an MP are expected to entail Wayanad’s development issues and grassroots connectivity improvement.
