In Rajasthan, tensions between the BJP and Congress have escalated over the dissolution of districts. While Congress protests these actions, BJP president Madan Rathore asserts that no welfare schemes implemented by the previous government have been stopped.

Rathore criticized the prior Congress administration, led by Ashok Gehlot, for delaying significant initiatives such as the Eastern Rajasthan Canal Project (ERCP). He highlighted that the BJP, upon taking office, prioritized the ERCP, marking progress by signing a memorandum of understanding and initiating the tender process.

Meanwhile, at a Congress-led public meeting in Banswara, opposition leaders, including Govind Singh Dotasara and Tikaram Jully, condemned the BJP for reversing what they call 'gifts' granted by the previous government. Dotasara signaled an upcoming movement against the state's decisions, advocating action from grassroots to the legislative assembly.
