Bhajan Lal govt facing 'opposition from within'. Bypolls due soon, BJP leaders say this is result of top brass handing reins to 1st-time MLA, undermining seniors like Vasundhara Raje.
His son Manvendra is said to be weighing options about returning from Congress to BJP. Jaswant was expelled for contesting as Independent from Barmer parliamentary seat in 2014.
While the seven-time MLA and Rajput leader hasn't taken names, his barbs seem to be aimed at Churu MP and Jat leader Rahul Kaswan, said to be a loyalist of former CM Vasundhara Raje.
The 1st-time MLA won from Sanganer by 48,081 votes, defeating Congress’s Pushpendra Bhardwaj. BJP, which won MP, Chhattisgarh & Rajasthan, has selected fresh CM faces in all 3 states.
Shivraj, Raje, Raman Singh may be out of race, it is learnt. Union ministers Arjun Meghwal and Gajendra Shekhawat, MPs Diya Kumari, Rajyavardhan Rathore, CP Joshi said to be in running.
Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
