Former chief minister Vashudhara Raje, named the new BJP president in Rajasthan, has run into problems with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), informed sources said Monday.
Sources in the RSS said that its leaders were not happy that Raje had been appointed the state BJP chief replacing Arun Chaturvedi, who was a RSS nominee.
It is learnt that these leaders have conveyed their displeasure to the Bharatiya Janata Party as she is being projected as the chief ministerial candidate ahead of assembly elections due in November.
‘Raje was not acceptable to RSS as the CM candidate in 2008 due to her autocratic style of functioning,’ a RSS leader said.
‘There is no question of accepting her as CM candidate this time too,’ the leader said.
