Priyanka faces competition from BJP’s Navya Haridas
Priyanka Gandhi is contesting elections from Wayanad, so the BJP has fielded Navya Haridas to counter her. The candidate of the left alliance LDF is Satyan Mokeri. Let us tell you that in this Lok Sabha election, Rahul Gandhi was elected from Wayanad and Rae Bareli in Uttar Pradesh. He later decided to leave the Wayanad seat. For this reason, by-elections are held here.
Who is Navya Haridas?
Navya Haridas, 39, has been a Kozhikode Municipal Corporation councilor twice and is a leader of the BJP parliamentary party in the corporation. She is also the state general secretary of the BJP Mahila Morcha. He has a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from KMCT Engineering College, affiliated to Calicut University. She was a BJP candidate from Kozhikode South constituency in the 2021 Kerala Assembly elections, but lost to Congress candidate Ahmed Devarkovil. Navya Haridas is popular among the youth, so Priyanka Gandhi’s journey in Wayanad will not be easy. Rather, Haridas may prove to be a challenge for them.
