No to Vasundhara Raje





Rajsthan Chief Minister returned back to Jaipur. She flew to New Delhi to meet Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi, BJP president Amit Shah, Finance Minister Arun Jaitly in the wake of Lolit Modi Gate scandals. But no one of them is not agree to meet with Bashundhara. So She returned to Jaipur. Times of India reported that this was Raje's first trip to Delhi after controversy involving her and Lalit Modi surfaced recently. There were reports about Raje meeting with the BJP top brass but it was tactfully avoided to rule out further speculations about what transpired during the meetings.

On Friday, Raje got a clean chit from the BJP top brass as well as the RSS, as the two organizations have assured no threat to her position.
"I told her to hold the meeting at Niti Aayog and return to Jaipur. There is no relevance of meeting with any leader since her position was intact and she need not clarify about the ongoing allegations against her," a senior BJP leader told TOI.

He said that reports about her resignation were baseless and at no point in time it was discussed among party leaders. "Leadership has conveyed to her that her earlier explanation about her position in Lalit Modi case was satisfactory and that she hasn't done anything wrong," he said. He said that there was no evidence of illegality in her statement supporting Lalit Modi application to take UK citizenship.

There were reports that Raje had sought time from home minister Rajnath Singh, finance minister Arun Jaitely and party president Amit Shah. However, reports suggest that Rajnath Singh spoke to her and asked her to focus on her routine work and ignore media reports.

Raje has been accused of helping former IPL commissioner Lalit Modi get UK citizenship. BJP insiders say that the RSS leadership had no second thought and outrightly conveyed that action against senior and mass leaders will weaken the party. "Congress has purposely targeted senior leaders, who have strong mass base, therefore, government should no bow to opposition pressure," said a senior leader.

When Raje reached Delhi on Saturday, she was surrounded by media persons and a few press vehicles chased her cavalcade. On media vehicle reportedly hit a car in her cavalcade.

Upset at media "behaviour" on her arrival at Delhi airport, her media team issued a statement saying that media behaviour in Delhi was disturbing and they should refrain from chasing her. "We have briefed media from time to time and we shall keep doing so," the statement said.
