He said Prime Minister Narendra Modi would inaugurate and dedicate development works worth Rs 23,000 crore from Ajmer, along with handing over appointment letters to more than 21,000 youth. He said, “From Ajmer soil itself, the Prime Minister will launch the vaccine prepared by the Government of India for cervical cancer prevention across the entire country.” He also said the biggest rally of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Ajmer division was going to be organised.Regarding the former Tonk MP taking back a blanket after distributing it to a Muslim woman, Rathore said that this matter is not in my personal knowledge. He said, “I believe that the poor have no caste. If blankets were distributed, why taken back, how taken back – it’s possible that seeing fewer blankets in some poor person’s hands, it was taken back. This is being presented in a distorted manner. I know former MP Jaunpuriya.“On Panchayat Raj elections, Rathore said the OBC Commission’s recommendations were yet to come. He said after these recommendations came, reservation would be decided, then lottery would be drawn. He said voter list work was almost nearing completion and Panchayat Raj elections would be organised within the stipulated time.During this, MP Damodar Agrawal, former MP Subhash Baheriya, former minister Kalu Lal Gurjar, BJP district president Prashant Mewara, former MLA Vithal Shankar Awasthi, Municipal Corporation Mayor Rakesh Pathak, along with senior BJP leaders and office bearers of the district were present.
