It is a matter of great happiness that Priyanka will contest from there and if she wins and becomes an MP from Wayanad, then whatever thoughts and plans Rahul had for Wayanad, she will fulfill them… I am hopeful that the people of Wayanad will make Priyanka win with a huge majority and then she will be in the Parliament,” Vadra told ANI.
