Wayanad, May 04: At the time when Congress party leader Rahul Gandhi was busy partying in Nepal's bar, Union Minister for Women and Child Development Smriti Irani visited RaGa’s parliamentary constituency Wayanad to review the development projects in District.
Irani gave the information about her visit via a social media platform. Taking to her Twitter account she tweeted “In the aspirational district of Wayanad today, chaired a meeting with officials to review the implementation of welfare works and schemes of Central Government”.
After reviewing the implementation of welfare work and schemes of the central government, she also held field visits in tribal areas like Kalpetta, Maravayal, Ambalachal, and Kaniyambetta to review the implementation of central schemes in the region.
Irani’s visit to Wayanad comes when Rahul Gandhi was seen in a viral video at a nightclub in Nepal’s capital Kathmandu partying with the Chinese ambassador to Nepal. It should be noted that Smriti Irani and RaGa have been old-time political rivals. Irani had defeated RaGa from Uttar Pradesh’s Amethi constituency in the 2019 Lok Sabha election and emerged as a giant killer in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls.
Irani also posted a video on Twitter with the caption “For our friends in Wayanad…” which accused Congress and Rahul Gandhi of stalling development in Amethi. The video talked about several development initiatives in Amethi which began after the BJP came to the power at the Centre in 2014.
