Even after getting the support of Samajwadi Party, Congress candidate Ajay Rai could not do anything special here. Voters openly supported BJP and the Prime Minister scored a hat-trick of victory from Kashi. On the other hand, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has shut the mouth of his opponents by defeating BJP's Dinesh Pratap Singh by more than three and a half lakh votes from Rae Bareli, another hot seat of UP. After losing to BJP's Smriti Irani from Amethi last time, Congress had fielded Rahul Gandhi from Rae Bareli instead of Amethi after a lot of struggle. It was very important for Rahul Gandhi to win the election from Rae Bareli for his credibility.
Let us tell you that Sonia Gandhi has been contesting elections from Rae Bareli, but this time citing health reasons, she wrote an emotional letter to the people of Rae Bareli in which she mentioned her experiences with Rae Bareli, citing the reason for not contesting the elections. After this, when Rahul Gandhi filed his nomination from Rae Bareli, while addressing the election rally, Sonia Gandhi told the people that I am handing over my son to you, I hope you will support him and he will never disappoint you. Anyway, Rae Bareli is considered the traditional seat of the Congress and the Gandhi family. In such a situation, this emotional appeal of Sonia Gandhi had an impact on the people and its result was seen in the form of the election results.
