The results of the Lok Sabha elections will be announced today. Vote counting will begin shortly. As usual, the Raebareli Lok Sabha seat in Uttar Pradesh is making headlines. Previously, Sonia Gandhi represented this seat, but Rahul Gandhi has now entered the fray. Rahul Gandhi is up against Dinesh Pratap Singh of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for the Raebareli seat. In an attempt to duplicate his victory in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is running again from the Wayanad seat in Kerala, where he received 706,367 votes. The safest Congress seat in Uttar Pradesh, Raebareli, is another race he is running for. Sonia Gandhi, the UPA chairperson, won it from 2004 to 2019.
In the Rae Bareli seat of Uttar Pradesh, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi emerged victorious after a drawn-out seven-hour counting procedure. He surpassed the margin by which his mother, Sonia Gandhi, won the seat in 2019 by garnering a significant lead of more than 4 lakh votes.
Although Raebareli is considered a Congress stronghold, it remains to be seen who the public will support this time. From 1967 to 1977, this seat was held by former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, and from 2004 to 2024, until her appointment to the Rajya Sabha, it belonged to Sonia Gandhi.
Based on data from the Election Commission of India, Rahul Gandhi is leading Raebareli by 2 lakhn votes against BJP's Dinesh Pratap Singh.
Rahul Gandhi wins Rae Bareli by 4 lakh votes
