Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who did not contest the Lok Sabha election, led the party's campaign in Amethi and Raebareli
As counting day trends in Uttar Pradesh's Amethi, among the most watched seats in the country, pointed to a Congress victory, senior party leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra shared a throwback picture with the Congress's Amethi candidate and Gandhi family loyalist Kishori Lal Sharma. Seven hours into the counting, Mr Sharma is emerging as a giant-slayer with a lead of nearly 1 lakh votes over BJP's Smriti Irani.
Ms Gandhi Vadra, who did not contest the Lok Sabha election, had led the party's campaign in Amethi and Raebareli, prestige seats which members of the Gandhi family have represented in the past. In Rae Bareli, her brother and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is leading against the BJP's Dinesh Pratap Singh by nearly 3 lakh votes.
In a post that accompanied the throwback pic, Ms Gandhi Vadra wrote, "Kishori bhaiya, I never doubted, I believed from the beginning that you will win. Many congratulations to you and my brothers and sisters from Amethi."
