The BJP’s Rae Bareli candidate Dinesh Pratap Singh has accused the Gandhi family of harbouring “hatred” for Rae Bareli-Amethi, and asked why they did not field a local leader but opted for “Priyanka Gandhi’s clerk” to contest the Lok Sabha polls from Amethi.

Singh, who is taking on Rahul Gandhi in a high-profile electoral contest here, also claimed that the Gandhi scion will lose by a bigger margin than his mother Sonia Gandhi had won in the 2019 polls.

Sonia Gandhi had beaten Singh in 2019 by over 1,67,000 votes. However, this was the lowest margin of victory that Sonia Gandhi has had in the five elections, including a bypoll, that she has fought from the constituency.
