PRIYANKA GANDHI AND POLITICS

The Congress party has finally exposed Priyanka Gandhi Vadra to mainstream politics, as she has been appointed as the AICC general secretary for Uttar Pradesh (East). This is the first official position held by Priyanka.

The move is being seen as one to strengthen the party's hold in the Hindi heartland state of Uttar Pradesh ahead of the 2019 general election.

This comes in the aftermath of the Congress party securing astounding victory in the states of Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan in the recently concluded assembly elections.
