BJP devise new strategies to capture Rajasthan; Discussion led by Amit Shah till dawn

JAIPUR: In addition to Madhya Pradesh, the BJP is also devising new strategies in Rajasthan, where assembly elections are near. As part of this, a meeting was held late last night in Jaipur under the leadership of Union Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP National President JP Nadda. Sources close to the party said that the meeting, which started late yesterday evening at a hotel in Jaipur, lasted till two in the morning.

It is suggested that assembly elections will be held in Rajasthan by December this year. In the Congress-ruled state, the BJP is gearing up to change its usual tactics and approach the contest differently. BJP's move is to field Union Ministers and MPs in the seats facing heavy challenges. There are also rumours that Union Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat will be the candidate.

It has been decided to campaign together with other leaders instead of campaigning for a chief ministerial candidate. The attempt is to control rivalries and animosity within the party itself and propagate the idea of ​​'party above individual'. The names of Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, Rajya Sabha MP Dr. Kirodi Lal Meena, Lok Sabha MPs Diya Kumar, Rajyavardhan Rathore andSukhbir Singh Jaunapuria are being heard as BJP's chief ministerial candidates. At the same time, there are indications that Vasundhara Raje, the most influential senior BJP leader and former chief minister of the state, will not be in the race.
