Priyanka Gandhi urges supporters to ensure KL Sharma's win

Amethi: Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Friday came out in support of KL Sharma, an old party loyalist, who is contesting Lok Sabha polls from Amethi.

KL Sharma filed his nomination from Amethi this morning. 

Priyanka urged the party workers to stand shoulder-to-shoulder and ensure Kishori Lal Sharma's victory.

Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said, "I am in a rush because I have to leave for Raebareli to attend the nomination filing of 'bhaiya' (Rahul Gandhi). Kishori Lal Sharma is going to contest from Amethi and you have known him for 40 years. He is very well aware of the issues of Amethi. We will fight together and will ensure Kishori Lal Sharma's victory."

She further said that the Congress wanted to bring back the politics of truth in Amethi.

"We want to bring back politics of truth and service in Amethi. I will come back to Raebareli on April 6 and then stay here till the end of the polls. The BJP fights the polls on the strength of money, we will fight on the basis of people. We will spread this message throughout the entire country that we need the politics of service back in the country," she further added.

While Priyanka herself is not contesting, her brother and senior leader Rahul Gandhi is contesting from Raebareli. (with Agency inputs)
