Farmers’ stir, ‘mistakes’ in ticket distribution led to BJP’s fall in seats: Rajasthan minister Jhabar Singh Kharra

Rajasthan minister Jhabar Singh Kharra attributes BJP’s decline in number of seats in the state to farmers’ agitation and ticket distribution errors during Lok Sabha elections. The BJP won 14 out of 25 seats, with Congress securing eight and India bloc partners CPI(M), Rashtriya Loktantrik Party, and Bharat Adivasi Party each winning one seat in the state. Kharra emphasised the need for the party to work harder and highlights collective responsibility for the defeat.
