Jaipur News Desk: On the by-elections being held on 7 seats of Rajasthan, all eyes are fixed on Khinvsar seat which is called the stronghold of Hanuman Beniwal. After years, the political equation of Khinvsar is complicated. Because here, along with Hanuman Beniwal’s party RLP, candidates from BJP and Congress are also in the fray. Recently, Congress had included former IPS Sawai Singh Godara, who was a BJP leader in Khinvsar, into the Congress and given the Khinvsar ticket to his party. Hanuman Beniwal was also perturbed by this move of Congress.
Big masterstroke of CM Bhajanlal
Meanwhile, on Friday, Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma made a big masterstroke and made the battle of Khinvsar interesting. The CM has taken Durg Singh Chauhan, a strong Congress leader in Khinvsar, with him. After meeting Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma on Friday evening, Durg Singh Chauhan left Congress and joined BJP.
Durg Singh Chauhan joins BJP with hundreds of prominent people
Khinvsar leader Durg Singh Chauhan along with hundreds of prominent people were inducted into the BJP in the presence of BJP state president Madan Rathod in Jaipur late on Friday night. BJP state president Madan Rathod welcomed him wearing a scarf. Durg Singh Chauhan leaving Congress and joining BJP is said to be a big blow for Congress.
Durg Singh Chauhan was asking for ticket from Congress in Khinvsar.
It is known that Durg Singh Chauhan was seeking ticket from Congress from Khinvsar. But he did not get the ticket. Durg Singh had recently said that if the party did not give the ticket, the people of Khinvsar responded in the 2023 assembly elections. From the time Khinvsar Assembly was formed till today, Congress has not opened its account on Panchayat Samiti, Zilla Parishad and Assembly seat. With Durg Singh Chauhan joining BJP, Congress will weaken in Khinvsar. Its effect can be seen on the results of the by-elections.
