New Delhi: It is being discussed in the political circles that Rahul Gandhi did not come to a single rally in Rajasthan, even after a month after the announcement of the assembly elections, and only 15 days to the end of the campaign. Rahul stands third in the list of star campaigners in Rajasthan after Mallikarjun Kharge and Sonia Gandhi. Kharge and Priyanka held two rallies in Rajasthan after the election was announced on October 9. In this situation, the absence of Rahul Gandhi in the campaign field in Rajasthan is being discussed.
It is reported that Rahul has a grudge against Ashok Gehlot, who earlier overturned the High Command’s decision to remove him from the post of Chief Minister. While in other states the national and state leaderships of Congress are fighting unitedly, in Rajasthan the party is moving forward centered on Gelot. Gehlot had a great advantage in determining the candidates. He also secured seats for 89 sitting MLAs. But Gehlot was not ready to listen to the suggestion that the sitting MLAs should be removed to eliminate the anti-government sentiment. It has also been discussed that Sachin Pilot is not very active in the campaign.
Rahul, who has campaigned several times in other 4 states, has not reached Rajasthan even after a month has passed since the election was announced. Congress sources point out that Rahul will arrive after Diwali and since the polls in the state are on 25th of this month, it is not too late to start campaigning. However, he has already campaigned several times in Telangana, where the elections will be held on the 30th.
This is also an indication that Congress sees more chances of victory in Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Telangana than in Rajasthan. The Congress, which is expecting a solid victory in Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh, is counting on winning power in Telangana. Meanwhile, things are not easy in Rajasthan, which is facing anti-incumbency sentiment. Rahul himself had clarified this in Delhi. “We will win in Telangana. Victory is assured in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. Rahul said that we are close to victory in Rajasthan.
At the same time, the party leaders themselves share the concern that Rahul’s non-appearance will be taken as a sign of sure defeat in Rajasthan. The opposition is also moving to make Rahul’s absence a campaign issue. BJP spokesperson Laxmikant Bhardwaj said that Rahul Gandhi cannot face the people of Rajasthan. Many promises made by Rahul during the last elections have not been fulfilled. Many promises were made such as farm loan waiver and reduction in electricity charges. Not a single one of these could be followed. That is why even the Congress does not want Rahul to come. Whether Rahul comes or not, Congress has nothing left in Rajasthan. They will not get the seats to even elect the leader of the opposition.’ – said Bharadwaj
