Overview
- Nitin Nabin, on Monday, made his first Rajasthan visit by inaugurating the BJP’s Tonk district office, linking six more by video, and laying a foundation stone for Jalore.
- Following the Tonk program, Jaipur staged a citywide welcome led by Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma with former chief minister Vasundhara Raje present, featuring a bike-led roadshow, cultural greetings and police-managed detours.
- Party leaders cast the Tonk start as a push into eastern districts where the BJP seeks to grow in areas long tied to Congress leader Sachin Pilot.
- State president Madan Rathore said Pilot would be welcomed if he chose to join, underscoring open bids to recruit from the Congress.
- At party headquarters, Nabin met office-bearers and the Core Committee to review pending appointments and plan for upcoming Panchayati Raj elections.
