Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh asked deadpan in an election rally in Viratnagar, making the crowd burst into laughter. Singh quickly changed his tone and thundered: “If the Congress has the courage, let it announce its chief ministerial candidate as we have done.”
Sitting on the dais, Rajyavardhan Rathore, Singh’s ministerial colleague and a member of Parliament from Rajasthan, clapped vigorously.

Viratnagar is one of Rajasthan’s 200 assembly constituencies that will go to the polls on December 7, the last of the four-phase assembly elections in five states, the others being Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Mizoram and Telangana. Two days after Rajnath Singh addressed the rally, about 200 km south of Viratnagar, thousands of villagers gathered in several localities in Tonk district — Lamba Kalan, Bawari, Ganeta, Ganeti — and jostled to get a glimpse of their 41-year-old neta, Sachin Pilot. Many villagers expected Pilot, the Pradesh Congress chief and the party’s candidate from Tonk, to be the next Rajasthan chief minister.
In Ganeti, Pilot was given a hero’s welcome as sounds of drums reverberated across the tiny village. After his speech targeting Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje, he was escorted to a nearby primary school for a quick lunch of dal baati churma, a signature Rajasthani dish.
“Who will get what position will be decided after the elections,” Pilot told ET Magazine in Ganeti, adding with a sense of confidence that his party was within striking distance of forming the next government. Ashok Gehlot, two-time chief minister and confidant of party president Rahul Gandhi, is also a contender for the top job.

The BJP has fielded Yunus Khan, a senior minister from Raje’s cabinet, against Pilot, making Tonk an interesting political battleground. Fielding Khan, the BJP’s only Muslim candidate in the state, was considered a masterstroke, as Tonk assembly segment has about 50,000 Muslim electorate, comprising 22% of the total. But most Muslims this writer interacted with were still in the Congress camp, with Khan, somewhat paradoxically, commanding the support of a large chunk of Jats and Gurjars. Pilot, incidentally, belongs to the Gurjar community.
“Tonk district has remained backward for decades. People are overwhelmingly supporting Pilot saheb because, if he becomes the chief minister, the very look of the place will change. Tonk will be connected by railways, and youth will get employment,” said Shakil Khan, a transporter, discounting the theory that Tonk might vote on the basis of caste or religion. The Congress has fielded 15 Muslim candidates in the state as against BJP’s lone choice, Khan.
As ET Magazine took a 1,400-km-long road journey, covering Neemrana, Kotputli, Jaipur, Bundi, Kota and Jhalrapatan, apart from Viratnagar and Tonk, many people candidly voiced for a change of guard. Some, though, stuck to their guns and said they would continue to “vote for PM Modi”.
A few others, like farmer Babu Lal and trader Ghanshyam Khandelwal from Neemrana, said they were undecided. “In this constituency (Mundawar), it will be a triangular fight — BJP, BSP and Congress ally Loktantrik Janata Dal (LJD). We are keeping the cards close to our chest,” said Lal.

“It’s advantage BSP,” said Khandelwal, adding party supremo Mayawati chose the right candidate in Lalit Yadav. This is one of the five seats the Congress has left for its allies — two seats each for Sharad Yadav’s LJD and Ajit Singh’s RLD, and one for NCP.
After Neemrana, Kotputli and Viratnagar came the state capital of Jaipur.
On the outskirts of the pink city, Raj Kumar Singh was giving the finishing touches to a full-size Ambedkar statue. He showed a 9-ft-tall lion in white marble as well. It was priced at Rs 2.25 lakh. He said many rich foreigners visited Jaipur to buy large Ganesh idols as well as white elephants and lions.
What about the forthcoming elections? The sculptor turned somewhat reticent. He
