Jaipur, November 24: The Rajasthan Assembly Election 2023 polling is scheduled for Saturday, November 25. Anti-incumbency in Rajasthan might be in the BJP's favour. Rajasthan has been a swing state, with the power oscillating between the Congress and the BJP for decades. However, the BJP lacks a tall leader in the state. On the other hand, Ashok Gehlot’s mass connect, strengthened further by a systematic outreach programme, gives the party another shot at power. However, infighting between Ashok Gehlot and Sachin Pilot has been out in the open and could go against the party.
The campaign for Rajasthan Assembly Election 2023 ended at 6 pm on Thursday, with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress trading barbs over a host of issues. The Rajasthan Vidhan Sabha Polls results 2023 will be declared on December 3. Around 5.25 crore electors in the state gear up to vote in the Rajasthan Assembly Election 2023.

A ‘red diary’ detailing corruption claimed to be in the possession of a sacked Rajasthan minister, Rajendra Gudha, is also a talking point.
