Vasundhara Raje to be the CM of Rajasthan? Around 50 MLAs visited her residence

Back-to-back meetings in Jaipur and Delhi are fueling different speculations over the Rajasthan Chief Minister’s face amid growing suspense. The BJP leaders, who are in the race for the CM post, have maintained strategic silence after the victory.

As senior BJP leaders and MPs reached Delhi, around 50 MLAs visited former CM Vasundhara Raje’s residence on Monday.

Raje’s office team confirmed that these MLAs came to her only to give a courtesy call. While many of them visited her, many of these were on their way, Raje’s office team added.

According to sources, state president C P Joshi and state in-charge Arun Singh have reached Delhi. They will reportedly meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, and National President J P Nadda.

These include MLAs Kalicharan Saraf, Babu Singh Rathore, Premchand Bairwa, Govind Ranipuria, Lalit Meena, Kanwarlal Meena, Radheshyam Bairwa, Kalulal Meena, K K Vishnoi, Suresh Rawat and Bhagchand Takra.

BJP MLA from Nasirabad, Ramswaroop Lamba, after meeting Vasundhara Raje, said, “BJP has returned to Rajasthan only because of the work done by PM Modi and Vasundhara Raje. Raje has the support of 115 winning MLAs.” MLA Vijay Singh Choudhary said, “The people of Rajasthan want Raje to become the Chief Minister.”
