Rajasthan Politics: In Rajasthan politics, senior BJP leader and former Leader of Opposition Rajendra Rathore is considered a personality who has created a distinct identity with his political acumen, efficient leadership and public support. Rathore, who has been an MLA seven times, got the support of lakhs of supporters across the state, but recent challenges have raised new questions on his political career.Double challenge in Assembly and Lok SabhaFacing defeat from Taranagar seat in the 2023 assembly elections and then not being able to get BJP candidate Devendra Jhajharia victory in the Lok Sabha elections from Churu parliamentary constituency proved to be a double blow for Rathore. There was talk in political circles that this could be his political demise. But despite all this, Rathore did not give up and remained active in the state.BJP's trust and activism in the organizationThe top leadership of the BJP cannot ignore Rajendra Rathore's political experience and organizational skills. According to party sources, he can be appointed to an important post in the organization or the government. There are possibilities that he may be given the status of a cabinet minister and placed on a big post.Possibilities of seven big postsIn terms of political appointments, Rathore's name is being discussed for seven major posts. By appointing him to these posts, the party can not only take advantage of his experience, but can also strengthen the BJP's mass base in the state.Support and possibilitiesChuru MLA Harlal Saharan says that Rajendra Rathore is a "leader of 36 communities" and if the high command gives him a big responsibility, it will be a welcome step. At the same time, BJP leader Madhusudan Rajpurohit has indicated that Rathore is also likely to be sent to the Rajya Sabha.Following the strategy of the Gehlot government?Talking about political appointments, the previous Gehlot government had given big responsibilities to the senior leaders who lost by giving them the status of cabinet ministers. On the same lines, BJP can also give Rathore a big role in the state.Towards political renaissanceRajendra Rathod's experience and his strong hold in the state can prove to be a strong weapon for the BJP. Be it power or organization, Rathod's contribution will give new energy to the government and the party. Overcoming political challenges, Rathod has proved that a real leader is one who is ready to play his role even in adverse circumstances.Conclusion:Rajendra Rathod has shown that even defeat cannot weaken him. His supporters and party workers are excited about his return. Now it will be interesting to see how the BJP high command uses his experience. Will he get some big responsibility in the government, or will his contribution in the organization increase further? Only time will tell.
