In a stunning political upset, Congressman Kishori Lal Sharma, defeated Bharatiya Janata Party’s Union Minister Smriti Irani in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections from Amethi, Uttar Pradesh. His victory marks a historic recapture of Amethi, a traditional Congress bastion that had slipped from the party's grasp in 2019 when Irani defeated Rahul Gandhi. This seat, emblematic of the Gandhi family's political legacy, holds immense symbolic and strategic importance for the Congress party.
