The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)’s new chief minister picks for Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan have been in news occasionally. But both the chief ministers having grassroots connection are new to the political limelight.
Now, the newly crowned CMs are in the public eye and their old videos are in spotlight. These videos had been posted by them at a time when they were not big names in the corridors of political power.
Rajasthan and MP CMs old videos went viral
Bhajan Lal Sharma, a first-time MLA was picked by BJP for the CM in the key state of Rajasthan. As soon as his name was announced, his old video from campaigning went viral. In the video, shared by Sharma himself, he is seen campaigning with ‘Singham’ music in the background, projecting him as the celluloid police officer Bajirao Singham.
People showered praises on Sharma calling him Singham CM.
However, critics were quick to pounce on him as senior Congress leader and advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi shared the video and wrote, “Rajasthan’s new chief minister is too filmy! Hope he comes out of virtual world and face the realities of governing the state.”
