Rajeev Chandrasekhar On Rahul Gandhi Vacating Wayanad Seat: "A Betrayal Of People..."

BJP leader and former Union Minister, Rajeev Chandrasekhar hit out at Rahul Gandhi for vacating Wayanad parliamentary seat. Rajeev Chandrasekhar accused the Congress leader of betraying the people of Wayanad.

Rajeev Chandrasekhar said, "Priyanka Gandhi has the right to contest from anywhere in the country but there are many questions that arise from this decision of the Congress and in particular, Rahul Gandhi. He hid from them (Wayanad) the fact that he was also going to contest in Raebareli. He deceived them and today, after they have in good faith, supported him and given him one more chance to do something for the people, he is washing his hands and saying I am going to Raebareli. It is a betrayal of the people of Wayanad. She is making her political debut in a seat that is going to be extremely easy for her to win because IUML supports her."
