As ‘Team Rahul' came under attack, the chorus for bringing Priyanka Gandhi to the forefront in politics grew louder within the Congress party with at least two leaders today saying she is a “big fighter” and has the “natural ability” to connect with people.
“As a Congressman, we wish that Priyanka Gandhi should come to the main arena. She should work with mother Sonia Gandhi and brother Rahul Gandhi as a team,” Thomas told PTI.
Another leader Pallam Raju said Priyanka has always been supportive of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi.
“Whether she will come to the forefront is a personal choice... I think she has a natural ability to connect with the people... It is indeed a strength,” Raju said, adding her association with Congress is “integral”.
