Bhajan Lal Sharma got infected with Covid at a crucial time ahead of Lok Sabha elections. Recently, BJP had announced 15 candidates out of 25 Lok Sabha seats. There are still 10 candidates to be announced.
The party is eyeing to repeat last time's performance when BJP had won 24 seats with one seat going to its then ally Hanuman Beniwal's RLP, who had won the Nagaur seat. This time BJP is contesting on all the 25 seats. Jyoti Mirdha, who is a turncoat from Congress and has lost assembly election on BJP ticket from Nagaur, is now contesting Lok Sabha election also from Nagaur.
The chief minister Bhajan Lal Sharma has a key role to play in the Lok Sabha elections. He is touring around the state championing Modi Ki Guarantee.
“Bhajan Lal Sharma has been working very hard to ensure landslide win for BJP. He has been able to project his government as a clean and corruption free government so far,” said a senior IAS officer.
