With election campaign intensified in neighbouring Gujarat, the leaders from ruling Congress and the Opposition Bharatiya Janata Party have geared up to join the battleline to woo the voters.
Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot took bordering area of Gujarat by storm while addressing a series of rallies in last two days.
The BJP is also going to send a group of its leaders and workers to Gujarat for campaigning.
The Congress has asked its MPs, MLAs, ministers and other senior leaders to fan out in Gujarat to mobilise support for the Congress. The party has selected 96 leaders from Rajasthan to be dispatched to Gujarat.
“We have divided it in two parts. One group of leaders will visit the tribal region of the Gujarat while second group will move in non-tribal areas,” said a senior leader.
The Congress has decided to send tribal leaders like rural development minister Mahendrajeet Malviya to Dahod, higher education minister Dayaram Parmar and Udaipur MP Raghuveer Meena to Bansaskantha, minister of state Mangilal Garasia Panchmahal while Dungarpur MP Tarachand has been asked to campaign in Sabarkantha.

The headlines said it all. The Man Booker International Prize had been awarded to Lydia Davis, the American author. But most Indian newspapers in English announced it as “U.R. Ananthamurthy loses out on Man Booker”. You could almost hear the collective sigh of millions of disappointed Indians.

Today, India’s prime actors who are making a bid for international visibility — in roles, major or minor — are amassing reams of publicity and flashbulb attention from the paparazzi. Amitabh Bachchan, despite a brief part in The Great Gatsby, stirred up news headlines and tumult at the extravaganza’s premiere in New York, and then on the Cannes Film Festival’s red carpet. Irrfan Khan and Tabu have received an unconditional thumbs-up from the Oscar-celebrated Ang Lee after Life of Pi, Anil Kapoor is a known factor in international enclaves after Slumdog Millionaire, a cameo in Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, as well as the TV series 24.
