Leaders of the United Democratic Front (UDF) in Wayanad are disappointed over the exclusion of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s constituency from the route of Bharat Jodo Yatra in Kerala.
With just two more years to go for the general election, several Congress leaders and activists in the district said they had expected Mr. Gandhi to lead the rally through his constituency where he won with a record margin of 431,770 votes in the 2019 elections.
Moreover, they hope that Mr. Gandhi will contest again from the constituency in 2024. “If the rally passes through major towns in the constituency, it will be a morale booster to party workers, especially those at the bottom level,” a senior leader of the party said.
