The high voltage Rajasthan elections intensify

As the campaigning for the high voltage Rajasthan elections intensifies, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Congress president, chief minister of Uttar Pradesh Yogi Adityanath and BSP chief Mayawati have all pitched in what can be called an all high profile rally competition. A total of seventeen meetings and rallies have been addressed by the supremos of all major political parties in Rajasthan.


In the high voltage, Rajasthan elections have already seen the start of accusations and insults being flung at opposing sides. With Prime Minister Narendra Modi leading the front, leaders of Bharatiya Janata Party have attacked the Congress. The attack is based on the Party's stand on terrorism, tribal development and naxalism.





Who did what in the run up to the elections


The high voltage Rajasthan elections are also seeing a slew of promises from politicians, the chief one being a promise of loan waivers for the farmers by Rahul Gandhi. Rahul Gandhi has, however, shown a semblance of decency in the deteriorating political conditions where he requested his party workers to not use any “bad word” against the Chief Minister of Rajasthan as well as the Prime Minister of India.


The leaders have gone all out with Narendra Modi visiting Kota, Dungarpur and Bhilwara while Rahul Gandhi visited Pushkar and the dargah of Ajmer Sharif before he addressed a rally in Pokhran, Jodhpur and Jalore. Yogi Adityanath pitched in his part when he addressed rallies in Nagaur, Sikar, Churu, Bikaner and Jaisalmer districts. Mayawati, on the other hand, chose Jhunjunu and Jaipur to conduct her rallies.


While both Rahul Gandhi and Narendra Modi highlighted the importance of the vote of every individual, both of them seem confident of the fact it will be their respective party that will win the high voltage Rajasthan elections and form a government in the state.


The Prime Minister while speaking in a rally in Kota said, "Your votes will empower Modi. Your votes will bring changes in the country. Broadband network reached one lakh villages, 2.5 to 3 lakh km of the optical-fibre line was laid, 12 crore LPG connections, better roads were given in four-and-a-half years of the BJP government at the Centre. Your one vote has provided speed to the country. It has the power to change the country and shape its future,”


The two hundred member Rajasthan Assembly is to go to the polls for the election of a new government on the 7th of December. The results of the high voltage Rajasthan elections will be announced on the 11th of December.
