The West Bengal Congress Tuesday said it wants party general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra to campaign in the state for the Lok Sabha polls.
"In our list of start campaigners in Bengal, we have the name of Priyanka Gandhi. We have requested the party high command to send her for campaigning in Bengal," state Congress president Somen Mitra told PTI.
The list of star campaigners also includes AICC president Rahul Gandhi and his predecessor Sonia Gandhi.
Rahul Gandhi has launched the party's poll campaign in West Bengal on March 23 from a rally in Malda district.
After failure of seat sharing talks with CPI(M)-led Left Front in West Bengal, the Congress has decided to contest the poll alone in the state, where polling will be held in seven phases beginning April 11.
West Bengal will be witnessing a four cornered contest - Trinamool Congress, BJP, Congress and Left Front.
