Taking to Twitter, Priyanka said she was sure Kishori Lal would win the seat.

Union minister Smriti Irani was vying to retain the seat in a close fight with the Gandhi family’s trusted lieutenant, Kishori Lal Sharma, in one of the most prestigious battles of the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections.

Earlier before the elections, Priyanka had hailed the candidature of Kishori Lal Sharma from the Amethi Lok Sabha seat, and said the Gandhi family has had a longstanding association with him.

Sharma is a close aide of the Gandhi family and was the main person looking after the two prestigious constituencies -- Amethi and Rae Bareli -- on behalf of the Gandhis. 

In a post on X, Priyanka had said: "Today, it is a matter of happiness that Shri Kishori Lal ji has been made the candidate from Amethi by the Congress Party.  Kishori Lal ji's loyalty and dedication towards his duty will definitely bring him success in this election." 

Amethi went to polls in the fifth phase of Lok Sabha Elections 2024 on May 20.

Before elections, several BJP leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, had taken a dig at the grand old part for fielding Kishori Lal Sharma from Amethi. They had said that Rahul Gandhi fled from Amethi and had alarmed the people of Wayanad - where the former Congress chief is also contesting.
