The Rae Bareily MP assured the people of Wayanad that both he and Priyanka would focus on addressing their issues. Adding a personal note, he said his sister has always been devoted to her family and would now consider the people of Wayanad as her family.
Priyanka has always been someone who would sacrifice anything for her family and friends, and this quality will make her an exceptional MP for Wayanad. To her, the people of Wayanad are family.

The Congress leader remembered their childhood saying, “What is it that best describes my sister in one-two sentences? When we were small, Priyanka used to dote on her friends and would do anything for them. I would always tell her, 'Priyanka, you cannot go so far to look after them.' If she does this for her friends, imagine what she can do for her family."
"When my father died, it was my sister who looked after my mother. She was 17 when papa died. I am confident that my sister is ready to sacrifice anything for her family,” he added.
What is it that best describes my sister?

Rahul, former Wayanad MP, appealed to the residents to extend the same support to Priyanka that they had shown him during his term from 2019 to 2024.
"I think all of you understand very well the relationship I have with the people of Wayanad," he said. Speaking of the close bond between him and his sister, Rahul said, "The Rakhi I am wearing was made by my sister. I don't take it off till it breaks. This is a symbol of a brother's protection to his sister."
I have a rakhi on my hand that my sister made, and I don't take it off until it breaks.❤️

Rakhi is the symbol of brother's protection for his sister.
That is why I request the people of Wayanad to look after my sister and protect my sister.
