Jaipur: Bhartiya Janata Party’s national president Amit Shah is on a three-day-visit to Jaipur. During his stay, he is not only meeting party workers but also seers, who have reached Jaipur from various cities in Rajasthan.Shah was given a grand welcome by Vasundhara Raje led BJP government. Shah claimed that Rajasthan BJP is unbeatable, and has good internal party democracy. However, his comment that there is no open defecation in Rajasthan and that Rajasthanis have to visit UP to understand the pain of open defecation, stirred a bee’s hornet. Aaj Tak channel ran a story on how people defecate in open at Amrudonwala Bagh, on a daily basis, barely 300 meters away for Shah’s meeting venue. Situated in the heart of the city, barely a few metres away from Vidhan Sabha, the state assembly, the bagh, indeed reflects the disparity that exists in the city. On day 2, he met up with the seers. During this meet Ajmer’s parliamentarian Sanwar Lal Jat, suffered from a cardiac arrest and was rushed to SMS Hospital for treatment, where BJP president and Rajasthan CM also went to visit him.
