Jaipur. Former Rajasthan CM Vasundhara Raje has created a stir in the party by mentioning position and stature at the swearing-in ceremony of BJP’s new state president Madan Rathore. Without taking anyone’s name in this ceremony, Raje hit many targets with one arrow. However, after Raje’s statement, no reaction has come out yet. But it is believed from Raje’s statement that everything is not smooth in the party. The ‘silent war’ is still going on. This war can bloom in the by-elections for five assembly seats.
Former Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje’s presence at Madan Rathore’s swearing-in ceremony, held at the party’s state office in Jaipur on Saturday, was in the news. Raje targeted several leaders selectively by referring to their position and stature. Raje’s presence and her speech were the center of discussion in the corridors of politics. Raje, a veteran leader of Rajasthan BJP, praised Madan Rathore’s simplicity and said that the central leadership has made a service-minded, simple and honest leader the state president. She has faith in Rathore. Along with this, Raje also said that you have to take everyone along. But this is the most difficult task.
Raje said- Nowadays people get intoxicated with power
Raje said that in politics every person faces three things. Position, pride and stature. Position and pride are not permanent. But stature is permanent. If someone gets pride of position in politics then his stature reduces. Nowadays people get pride of position. She said that in her eyes the biggest position is the desire of the people. The love of the people and the trust of the people. This is such a position which no one can snatch from anyone. During this, Raje’s pain was also exposed. She said that the other name of politics is ups and downs. Every person has to go through this phase.
Leaders from all camps were seen at the ceremony
The special thing about Madan Rathod’s ceremony of taking charge is that leaders from all camps were present in this ceremony. But Vasundhara Raje’s presence in the ceremony caught everyone’s attention. Raje’s subtle targeting of many leaders shows that the internal war in BJP is not over yet. Anyway, after Madan Rathod takes charge, his first test will be the upcoming assembly by-elections. Will he be able to end the internal war or will the verbal attacks continue like this?
