Position vacant since since 9 years
This appointment had been long overdue ever since in 2009 when the then state general secretary Prakash Chand resigned from the position in the wake of regression which enveloped BJP in the 2008 assembly elections and the following 2009 Lok Sabha polls.
The position had been vacant for eight years and has been taken up by the juggernaut Chandrashekhar.
Not long before Ajmer Parliamentary goes in for Bypoll
In the wake of Sanvarlal Jat death, the time-bound bypoll on the Ajmer Parliamentary seat has gone vacant for BJP. It should be noted that Chandrashekhar is stepping into the frame at this perplexed time. This announcement has come in the heat of Amit shah’s visit to Jaipur.
According to a senior RSS functionary, ” This appointment is in view of the assembly polls. We cannot risk any loose ends. We are developing a system of accountability.”
