Congress’ star campaigner Priyanka Gandhi on Wednesday wound up her three-day tour of the twin parliamentary constituencies of Rae Bareli and Amethi exhorting party workers to strengthen the hands of her mother Sonia Gandhi and brother Rahul Gandhi in the coming elections.

Ms. Gandhi, who on Wednesday morning met party office bearers and workers up to the booth level of Bachrawan and Harchandpur, directed them to work hard towards ensuring the victory of party nominees in the assembly polls and strengthening the party in Uttar Pradesh, Congress sources said.

She directed party workers to ensure that voters reached the booths on the polling day and said that complaints, if any, should be kept aside at this point of time.

Promising to return on February two from when on she would be campaigning here, she said she should be kept informed about the non-active party functionaries.

Meanwhile, a delegation of women workers of Sheena Home textile factory, who had yesterday staged a protest against closure of the factory for the last two years, met the chairman of Ryan International School, Gracy Pinto for resolving the problems, sources said.

Ms. Gandhi later left for New Delhi from Fursatgaj airport.
