Who will get the crown in Rajasthan; Alwar MP Baba Balaknath also in the race !!

 

Baba Balaknath is also called 'Yogi of Rajasthan' and the saffron party may throw up another Sadhu as the Chief Minister in the desert state.  


He is also a Member of Parliament (MP) from Alwar Lok Sabha constituency. He has been elected to the new assembly from Tijara assembly segment having humbled Congress nominee Imran Khan.  The Alwar lawmaker won the seat with a margin of 6,173 votes.


He has built up his image as an able administrator and his being close to powerful UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is a certain and huge advantage.  





The UP Chief Minister also attended Baba Balaknath's filing of nomination for the state polls. 

It is being presumed that even much influential RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat may back his candidature for the big post in Jaipur. he is just 39 and that way will serve Sangh Parivar's longterm perspective vis-a-vis Hindutva agenda. 


Head of the revered Baba Mastnath Math in Rohtak in Haryana, Balaknath's charismatic image contributes to his popularity in both spiritual and political realms.  


Vasundhara Raje, former Chief Minister, also in the race. 

The 70-year-old leader is BJP national vice president and has led the BJP to two massive victories in the state including in 2003.


Daughter of founding BJP leader Vijayraje Scindia and sister of the late Congress leader Madhavrao Scindia, Vasundhara Raje started her political career in 1984 as a member of the BJP national executive.


She became the state's first woman Chief Minister. She has been elected to the state assembly thrice and five times to Lok Sabha and was a minister in the government headed by Atal Bihari Vajpayee.  



Gajendra Singh Shekhawat


Union Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat was a prominent face in BJP's poll campaign. Also considered an efficient and sincere administrator.

In the 2019 general election, Shekhawat defeated Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot's son Vaibhav Gehlot in Jodhpur.


In a recent NDTV-CSDS Lokniti survey, he was among the third-best choices for Chief Ministership, after Vasundhara Raje and Baba Balaknath.


Diya Kumari


Diya Kumari, a member of the erstwhile Jaipur royal family, also known as the 'daughter of Jaipur' is quite popular among the people. 

Earlier considered an 'outsider' when she became the Sawai Madhopur MLA but has steadily risen in prominence because of the developmental work in the constituency. 


The BJP could spring surprise by also making Arjun Ram Meghwal, present Union Law Minister, as the chief minister. Meghawal belongs to the SC community and this could help BJP get a major talking point in elections in the near future.
