On the first day of June, the world learnt that Subhash Chandra belonged to Rajasthan. The Times of India that day quoted the Essel group chairman calling it his “native” state. The backdrop was political. Chandra’s revelation came after he filed his nomination for Rajya Sabha as an independent candidate from Rajasthan with the support of the Bharatiya Janata Party.
“I still have a house, family and temple at Fatehpur in the Shekhawati region,” said Chandra, currently a Rajya Sabha member from Haryana. “I visit the place six times in a year.”
