Former Congress president and CPP Chairperson Sonia Gandhi in rally in Rae Bareli said that she is giving her son to the people of Raebareli and “Rahul will not disappoint you”. She also thanked the people for giving her an opportunity to serve them as an MP for 20 years.

“My everything is all given by you. So, brothers and sisters, I am giving you my son. You consider me yours,” she said.

Trying to strike an emotional chord with the voters, Sonia asked the people to consider Rahul Gandhi too as their own.

“Rahul will not disappoint you,” said Sonia Gandhi, as Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra stood by her side on the stage at a joint election rally in Raebareli.

“I taught the same lessons to Rahul and Priyanka which Indira Gandhi and the people of Raebareli had taught me. To respect all, protect the weak, fight against injustice for the rights of people. Don’t be afraid, because your roots of struggle and traditions are very deep,” she said.

Talking about her mother-in-law and former prime minister late Indira Gandhi, who was the MP from Raebareli, Sonia Gandhi said, “Indira ji had a special place for Raebareli in her heart. I saw her closely while working. She had immense affection for you.”

Sonia Gandhi was first elected as an MP from Raebareli in 2004 and represented the seat till earlier this year when she vacated it on getting elected as a member of the Rajya Sabha.

Rahul Gandhi is in the fray from the Raebareli constituency this time.

“You gave me a chance to serve you as an MP for 20 years. This is the biggest asset of my life,” she said.

Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav, along with other senior leaders of the Congress and the SP, was also present on the stage at the rally.
