Amethi MP Smriti Irani took a dig at the Congress while reacting to reports that Rahul Gandhi will fight elections from the constituency.
'I don't know who the Congress candidate would be (from Amethi), but this is a strange spectacle in the politics of Congress that for the first time, Congress is taking so long to declare their candidate from Amethi. This is the sign of Congress' defeat,' she said.
