Anticipating the BJP’s “win” in the forthcoming Assembly elections, PM Modi stated, “On December 3, when the BJP will return to power, we will take forward the schemes that will benefit the people of the state…”

“Our alliance is with the Janata Janardan,” Prime Minister Modi stated during his speech.

Following the passing of Congress candidate Gurmeet Singh Koonar, elections in the Karanpur constituency were postponed. As a result, 199 of the 200 assembly seats will be contested on November 25.

Today marks the final day of campaigning in the state before the elections on November 25, with results scheduled to be announced on December 3.

In the 200-member assembly, the Congress secured 99 seats and the BJP 73 in the 2018 Rajasthan assembly elections.
