Bhavani Singh Kalvi, after joining the BJP, also expressed his views saying, "BJP is my team and I am its team player. Whatever the party asks me to do, I will do and make efforts to win the game."

According to ABP Live, Vishwaraj Singh said, "My ancestors (Maharana Pratap) have always thought for the welfare of all society, and with this thinking, today I am associated with the BJP."

State president CP Joshi and Rajasthan in-charge Arun Singh welcomed the two personalities into the party at BJP headquarters in New Delhi.
