Letter Published in Gulf News UAE on 7Feb 19Priyanka Gandhi and politics

This is with reference to Priyanka Gandhi’s entry into Indian politics (“Priyanka factor promises an exciting poll battle”, Gulf News, January 29). The Indian Congress party president, Rahul Gandhi’s recent Uttar Pradesh (UP) launch of an additional secretary for Eastern UP made sensational news. It was an expected one but little late. For more than three decades, the Congress was not ruling UP and with this Congress is expecting a turning point in UP politics. Priyanka Gandhi not only resembles her grandmother, Indira Gandhi, but is accepted by the people of UP. The state is the main target for all the political parties in the 2019 elections.
