When asked about Raje’s non-inclusion in the poll panels, BJP state in-charge Arun Singh said she will campaign in the election
Vasundhara Raje
The BJP on Thursday announced two key election committees for the Congress-run Rajasthan, with former chief minister Vasundhara Raje not being made a member of any one of them. The party is expected to announce a third committee—an election campaign committee—for the state in the coming weeks, before the year-end Assembly polls.

When asked about Raje’s non-inclusion in the poll panels, BJP state in-charge Arun Singh said she will campaign in the election. “She is the national vice-president of the party. She has a big role to play. She has been the CM of the state twice. She will campaign in the election. We all respect her,” he told reporters.
BJP’s nominee list out even before poll dates
The BJP on Thursday released its first of 21 candidates for Chhattisgarh and 39 for Madhya Pradesh for the upcoming Assembly polls, which are yet to be announced. The party’s decision to announce the first list of candidates so early underlines the significance it has attached to five state elections—the last round of Assembly contest before the all-important Lok Sabha polls. Rajasthan, Telangana and Mizoram will also go to polls later this year.
