Congress party has declared many candidates for different constituencies, but the candidates for Amethi and Raibareli have so far not been announced, the source says. The Gandhi family has a sentimental attachment to both seats, a source says. In 2019, Rahul Gandhi lost to Smriti Irani of the BJP and later got himself elected from Wayanad source says. Sonia Gandhi, the sitting MP from Raibareli, has been elected for Rajya Sabha, the source says. So, the seat is clear for any new candidate. BJP has already announced the candidature of Smriti Irani from Amethi, but it seems the BJP does not have a strong candidate for Raibareli, the source says. Some say that Rahul Gandhi will concentrate on Amethi after voting for the Wayanad seat source says. The nomination will start from 26th April till 3rd May for Amethi and Raibareli seats source says. Voting is on 20th May. The husband of Priyanka Gandhi, Robert Vadra, has shown interest in contesting from Amethi, but no confirmation from the Congress high command so far, a source says. Due to sentimental attachment, perhaps the Gandhi family will not desist from both seats, a source says.
