The official X account for Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee posted a cheeky reaction to Irani’s announcement, thanking Kishori Lal Sharma, who defeated Irani in Amethi.
Smriti Irani and Amar Upadhyay are set to reprise their iconic roles as Tulsi and Mihir Virani in the new season of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi beginning 3 July.

Niti Aayog director Urvashi Prasad was informed Thursday that ‘competent authorities’ had decided not to grant her an extension. She had in June criticised Smriti Irani in a post on X.
CAIT secretary general & BJP MP Praveen Khandelwal says former Union minister Smriti Irani will help trading community upgrade and modernise their existing business format.
In the now deleted post, Urvashi Prasad alleged that the former MP had ‘thrown her out of office’ & that her behaviour as public servant and woman is ‘nothing less than abhorrent’.

Apart from his old ties, Sharma's Brahmin identity is also coming in handy in a campaign which is dominated by BJP’s Hindutva pitch. Amethi goes to polls 20 May.
