Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national President JP Nadda on Thursday said that Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot cares less for the people of the state but more for his party and its leaders.
Mr Nadda's stinging attack on Mr Gehlot came ahead of the Rajasthan Assembly polls which are due in December next year.
Mr Nadda inaugurated the 'Jan Aakrosh Yatra' in Rajasthan's Jaipur in poll-bound Rajasthan and addressed the public of Rajasthan.
While addressing the public during the Jan Aakrosh Yatra, Mr Nadda said," Our 'Jan Aakrosh Yatra' will cover 200 assembly seats and will have Jan Sampark Abhiyan with nearly two crore people. Ashok Gehlot-led Rajasthan government has only changed the names of schemes. Chief Minister Gehlot cares less for the state's people but more for his party and its leaders."
Exuding confidence in the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Mr Nadda said that the Gujarat assembly election, 2022 is going in the favour of the BJP.
"There is immense love for PM Modi in the state. CM Bhupendra Patel has done the work of development in Gujarat. We have seen positive results in today's polling," he added.
