A tussle inside of BJP seems to have brewed in Rajasthan. Amid the ongoing rift Rajasthan's Former chief minister, Vasundhara Raje is expected to kick start the temple visit and will be highlighting the work done by her as the chief minister. She is all set for the show of strength on the occasion of her birthday to the Bharatiya Janta Party.
Vasundhara Raje
On the 7th of March, she will be visiting many temples in Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh and worshipping Badrinath.

There are also some other groups active on social media in support of Raje. Such as Team Vasundhara Raje 2023 which are lobbying for her to be the CM face in the 2023 assembly elections.
Political crisis
Raje had also chosen to keep silent during the political crisis in the state sparked by former deputy chief minister Sachin Pilot’s rebellion last year even as the chief minister Ashok Gehlot accused the BJP of trying to topple his government.
The central leadership is aware of all these developments, say party leaders. They have made attempts to try and forge unity in the party. Raje has been included in a high-powered core committee for Rajasthan. Though she did not attend the first meeting of the group on January 24.
