Raje’s remarks have stirred comparisons with previous statements she made at a BJP event in July, where she criticized rising arrogance among party leaders. “Arrogance comes with the post, but it is temporary. By taking everyone along, one’s stature increases, which is permanent,” she had said. Her comments then did not name any individuals but generated significant speculation.In June, during an event in Udaipur, Raje drew attention with her remark, stating, “There was a time when people were grateful to someone. But today is such a time when people first try to cut the finger by holding which they learnt to walk.”Raje’s recent statements come at a time of heightened political activity, as the BJP faces scrutiny for its performance in recent general elections. Despite dominating the last two general elections, winning all 25 seats, the party’s share dropped to 14 seats this time around. The party’s strategic decisions, including sidelining Raje and appointing first-time MLA Bhajanlal Sharma as Chief Minister, are under the spotlight.With by-elections approaching for seats vacated by five Congress MLAs who have become MPs, the pressure is on Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma. Raje’s recent remarks have fueled speculation about her political intentions and potential impact on the BJP’s fortunes in Rajasthan.
