Lucknow, Jun 4 (PTI) While Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is expected to win from two constituencies, it has turned out to be a disappointing election for the other side of the family.

In Sultanpur, Maneka Gandhi of the BJP was trailing by over 36,600 votes against Rambhual Nishad of the Samajwadi Party, according to the Election Commission data at 4.50 pm. Her son and Rahul Gandhi's cousin Varun Gandhi was not even given a ticket from the BJP.
