Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi drew a lot of flak over his “long absence” from Amethi, with Uttar Pradesh minister Mohsin Raza querying if the leader has decided to say “goodbye” to his Lok Sabha constituency.
“I have been coming here for the past six months, but the local MP Rahul was not seen anywhere. It seems he has made up his mind to say good bye to this constituency,” said Raza, who was in Amethi to distribute crop waiver scheme cheques to 4,000 farmers.
The minister claimed that the people of the constituency have decided to give up on Gandhi and choose Union Minister Smriti Irani as their next MP.
“I think Rahul has also understood this,” the BJP leader said.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
