Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka arrive in Kerala, to visit landslide-hit Wayanad

Congress leader and former Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi and his sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra arrived in Kerala on Thursday and will visit various relief camps set up in the landslides-hit areas of Wayanad district, party sources said.
Gandhi, who won from the Wayanad Lok Sabha constituency in the 2019 general elections, had again won from here this year.
However, as he also won from the Raebareli LS seat in Uttar Pradesh, he gave up the Wayanad constituency from where Priyanka is expected to contest when a by-election is held there.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Congress leaders had to postpone their visit to landslide-hit Wayanad due to severe weather conditions. Authorities informed them that landing would be impossible due to continuous rain and adverse weather. The leaders expressed their intention to visit the district at the earliest opportunity.
