Rajasthan CM Gehlot challenges Vasundhara Raje to debate on welfare guarantees

Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on November 3 challenged senior BJP leader and former CM Vasundhara Raje to a debate on the seven guarantees which the ruling Congress has offered to the people of Rajasthan if it is voted back to power in the State Assembly election.

Mr. Gehlot said the seven guarantees were the main issue in the 2023 Assembly election. “I challenge the leader of the Opposition party, Ms. Raje, to hold a debate with me on these guarantees,” he said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

Ms. Raje had on November 2 questioned the guarantees, saying the ruling party cannot guarantee its own survival. “People in Rajasthan are not foolish, they will not fall prey to false promises made by the Congress,” Ms. Raje said during a campaign event in Pali district.
