Priyanka Gandhi on Saturday won the Wayanad Lok Sabha bypoll with a thumping margin of over four lakh votes, defeating Sathyan Mokeri of the CPI(M)-led LDF.

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra takes oath as Lok Sabha MP after winning Wayanad byelection, marking her entry into active politics.

The 52-year-old, who joins her mother Sonia and brother Rahul as an MP in what is a rare instance of three members of a family together in Parliament, took affirmation in Hindi while holding a copy of the Constitution soon after the House met.

Rahul Gandhi paused his sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra's entry into Lok Sabha to capture a special moment. Priyanka became a lawmaker after winning Wayanad's Lok Sabha seat.
