Vasundhara Raje, a two-time former Chief Minister of Rajasthan, has been nominated as the Bharatiya Janata Party's candidate for the Jhalrapatan constituency in Jhalawar district.

This announcement regarding her candidacy for the upcoming election follows persistent speculation about disagreements between Raje and the central leadership of the BJP, particularly concerning the party's control in Rajasthan.
