In Rajasthan, the imprint of RSS writ large on every appointment. First time MLA and general Secretary of State BJP Bhajan Lal Sharma has been named as the chief minister of Rajasthan.
Diya Kumari and Prem Chand Bairwa have been appointed as deputy chief minister while Vasudev Devnani has been made speaker of the Rajasthan assembly.
Bhajan Lal Sharma is new to electoral politics. However he has got great organisational skills. His deep grounding in RSS helped him reach the top post in his first attempt.
Hailing from Bharatpur, Sharma contested election from Jaipur's Sanganer seat and is an unexpected name for CM.
