These meetings, held behind closed doors, were being strenuously attempted to bring in concert party objectives along with local aspirations of these key regions.
It is said that the discussions ranged from a review of the progress of current development projects to preparing a roadmap for future developments. Sources said that CM Sharma was particularly concerned in ensuring that projects proposed in the latest budget are carried out on time to realize the ambitious “Developed Rajasthan-2047” vision.
Bikaner MLA and Bharatpur MLA
Anonymously, an MLA from Bharatpur stated that the meeting seemed to fulfill the expectations as it committed the government to welfare schemes for youth, women, farmers, and workers. “The Chief Minister was very clear about the need for timely execution of plans to uplift our constituencies,” stated the MLA.
Another MLA from Bikaner pointed out that they were discussing the kind of infrastructure and services to the public, as in the instance of establishing new development authorities in Bikaner and Bharatpur. This is really one step towards structured urban development. “We talked about how these authorities will streamline urban planning, making our cities livable and efficient,” he said.
Besides, it also discussed the political aspect where some MLAs said that this is a part of a broader plan to consent with party leaders for time-to-time interaction to prepare them for the coming elections. According to political analysts, these types of meetings are also essential in maintaining party unity and duly addressing local interests, which could eventually affect voters’ sentiments.
CM Sharma’s seeking regional MLA interactions to fill the gap from state policy-making to local implementation to ensure that the BJP’s governance is felt at the grassroots level. Besides, such meetings might also help in fine-tuning the government’s strategies to overcome the regional challenges, especially after the recent poor electoral results in some specific areas.
The Chief Minister has been meeting with different divisions, which reflects a hands-on approach to governance and keeping in touch with the pulses of the state’s different regions.
As Rajasthan moves ahead under the air of Sharma administration, these strategic meetings with MLAs from Bikaner and Bharatpur divisions underline commitment towards regional development and political stability in a very proactive way in the state’s political culture.
