Wayanad Lok Sabha Seat - Know who is Navya Haridas, who was given a ticket by BJP against Priyanka Gandhi

Wayanad Lok Sabha Seat: In the by-election to the Wayanad Lok Sabha seat, the BJP has fielded Navya Haridas against Congress' Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. The by-election is being held due to the decision of Rahul Gandhi to remain MP from Rae Bareli, who won the Wayanad seat in June. Voting will be held on November 13 and the results will be declared on November 23.

Who is Navya Haridas?

39-year-old Navya Haridas has been a councilor in Kozhikode Municipal Corporation twice and is currently the leader of the BJP Parliamentary Party. She is also the state general secretary of the BJP Mahila Morcha. Navya holds a B.Tech degree in Mechanical Engineering from KMCT Engineering College, Calicut University. In the 2021 Kerala Assembly elections, she was the BJP candidate from Kozhikode South constituency but lost to Congress candidate Ahmed Devarkovil.

Need for development

After filing her nomination for the by-election, Navya said, "The people of Wayanad need development. The Congress family is not really fulfilling the needs of the people of Wayanad. After this election, the residents of Wayanad need a better member in Parliament who can address their issues." She preferred administrative experience, saying she has been serving the people for the last eight years and knows their problems.

CPI candidate

In this by-election, the Congress has given a ticket to Priyanka Gandhi, while the Communist Party of India (CPI) has fielded senior leader Satyan Mokeri. This by-election is an important opportunity to increase political interest and activism in the Wayanad region, increasing competition among all parties in the electoral race.

This election could be a turning point for the development of Wayanad, and the candidature of Navya Haridas has added new charm to the political scene.
