All these MLAs are supporting Mrs Raje who opposed the Lok Jagran Yatra of senior party leader Gulab Chand Kataria.
An MLA and a close associate of Vasundhara Raje, Bhawani Sinh Rajawat told media persons that the Party should declare Mrs Raje as the Chief Ministerial candidate in the next assembly elections. Meanwhile, senior BJP leader Gulab Chand Kataria has called off his Yatra.
Mrs Raje said if Kataria will be allowed to conduct his Yatra in Udaipur division she will resign from the primary membership of the party. She, however, said that the issue will be solved amicably within the party.
