Irani defeated Gandhi with a margin of 55,120 in the bitterly contested high profile seat, which has fetched nation's attention.
The Union Minister cultivated a strong voter base in the constituency with her numerous visits and using central development schemes in past five years, after she had lost to the Congress President in 2014. IANS
