Congress chief, Sonia Gandhi’s daughter Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Tuesday has said that she was open to the thought of campaigning for the party in election-bound Uttar Pradesh and “will do anything to help my brother” Rahul Gandhi.

“I am here in Amethi and Rae Bareli. My brother and I will talk to each other. I will do anything to help my brother. I will do whatever he requires me to do,” Priyanka, 40, has told reporters in Amethi – Rahul’s parliamentary electorate – when asked if she would be in movement with him.

She has been supervision Congress election arrangements in Amethi and Rae Bareli but has not actively participated in campaigning. However, she has said she was open to the idea of campaigning if Rahul asked her to do so. “I have not determined yet. For now I am going to oversee elections in these 10 constituencies which fall within our parliamentary constituency. If Rahul wants me to campaign, I will campaign,” Priyanka has stated.

Asked if she would join active politics if Rahul so wants, Priyanka has  avoided a direct reply saying: “He knows to what degree he requires me.” She has arrived in Amethi Monday from New Delhi in a chartered aircraft which landed at an airfield at the Indira Gandhi Flying Academy in Fursatganj, about 35 km from here.

Dressed in an orange sari, she was bounded by passionate Congress supporters, mostly women, who had lined up to cheer her outside the guesthouse of the Sanjay Gandhi Hospital run by the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation here. Women supporters screamed slogans of “Priyanka Gandhi, Zindabad” to cheer her up. Voting for the 403-member state assembly is to be held in a seven-phase schedule between Feb 8 and March 3.
