Indira's personal influence; Priyanka Gandhi is the choice of Congress

Priyanka has also inherited the personal influence of her grandmother Indira Gandhi. A hidden Indira can be seen not only in looks but also in Priyanka's interactions with people and followers. The owner of a simplicity that surprises even the followers of the opposite party. Priyanka participates in road shows with a smile on her face. In North India, women gather on both sides of the road just to catch a glimpse of Priyanka.

Priyanka is preparing for the competition for the first time. The long wait of the party workers is finally over. If Priyanka wins, it will become a rarity for three members of the Gandhi family to enter Parliament together. Priyanka has been active in campaigning for her mother Sonia since the late 1990s. In 2004, when her brother Rahul Gandhi entered active politics, Priyanka was there with her support.

Prior to the 2019 general elections, Priyanka officially entered politics by taking charge of campaigning in eastern Uttar Pradesh. Despite Priyanka's hard work, she could not break the BJP fortress. Still, no one in the party condemned Priyanka's actions. Rumors were rife that Priyanka could be Prime Minister Narendra Modi's rival in 2019 and this time. Since becoming AICC General Secretary in 2019, 52-year-old Priyanka has overseen campaigns in various states. Priyanka's hard work is also a reason behind the success of opposition parties led by the Congress in the general elections in Uttar Pradesh this time.

Priyanka had responded to the national media that her grandmother took 33 bullets for the country and her father sacrificed his life for the country.
