Rahul Gandhi visits Amethi after Lok Sabha defeat; celebrates 10M followers on Twitter

Amethi (Uttar Pradesh) | Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has visited his former constituency Amethi in his first visit after the humiliating Lok Sabha loss.

He met the Congress workers and is now scheduled to attend a program at a college.

Gandhi will also asses reasons for the Lok Sabha defeat and take feedback.

“10 Million Twitter followers – thank you to each and every one of you! I will celebrate the milestone in Amethi, where I will be meeting our Congress workers & supporters today,” Rahul Gandhi tweeted.


Rahul Gandhi, in the recently concluded Lok Sabha polls, lost to BJP leader Smriti Irani by more than 50,000 votes. Congress had to face this embarrassing defeat in their own stronghold which was held by the Gandhi family since more than a decade.

The visit comes at a time when Congress is facing its worst leadership crisis, with the party yet to choose a new chief. Gandhi had announced last month that he would step down as Congress president following the party’s humiliating defeat in the Lok Sabha election.

Rahul is now MP from Wayanad in Kerala.
