The BJP is considering fielding prominent central leaders in the upcoming Rajasthan elections, similar to its recent strategy in Madhya Pradesh. Party sources say the tactic could present a united front and introduce new faces ahead of the polls. The names being discussed include Union ministers Gajendra Shekhawat, Arjun Ram Meghwal and others. This approach echoes the BJP's focus on Prime Minister Modi's leadership over state issues and chief minister candidates. It also sends a message to incumbent CM Vasundhara Raje that she may not lead the party this time. The opposition Congress has criticized the strategy as desperate.
