People of Wayanad want to say goodbye to Rahul: BJP candidate Surendran


Bharatiya Janata Party candidate from Wayanad, K Surendran, who is pitted against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, has affirmed confidence in coming out victorious and said the people of the constituency want to welcome Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

BJP Tamil Nadu chief K Annamalai also exuded confidence in Surendran’s victory and said that the BJP leader is not here to defeat Rahul Gandhi but to serve the people of the constituency.

Surendran along with Annamalai — who contested from Coimbatore in Tamil Nadu — held a roadshow in Wayanad on Wednesday. Notably, the campaigning will end today at 6 pm as the polling for the second phase will be held on April 26.

Further during the roadshow, Tamil Nadu BJP chief Annamalai asked if Rahul Gandhi could present a white paper about what he has done for his constituency in the last five years.

Annamalai said, “K Surendran is going to win with a margin India is going to look back. He is not here to defeat Rahul Gandhi, he is here to serve people.”

“Can Rahul Gandhi present a white paper to say what he has done for Wayanad in the last five years? He has visited Wayanad less than 10 times and now he has come for only elections,” he added.
