Jaipur:
In preparation for participating in the Congressional elections in Rajasthan, the opposition BJP party organized an event in Chittorgarh on Wednesday. The event Nav Matdata Sangamhighlighted India’s successful third lunar mission – Chandrayaan-3 with a video showing a replica of the Chandrayaan-3 rover Pragyan ascending from the ground to the sky.
The event started in the Mewar region and was organized under the leadership of CP Joshi, the Member of Parliament from Chittorgarh, who is also the head of the state BJP. The video shows a huge crowd waving the Tricolor and cheering for the Chandrayaan-3 as Mr Joshi addresses a public gathering as Saare Jahaan se Acha plays in the background.

The BJP’s attempt to reach the masses ahead of parliamentary elections is significant as it plans to oust the Ashok Gehlot government. Parliamentary elections will be held in Rajasthan later this year.
India made history on August 23 by becoming the first country to make a soft landing near the south pole of the moon. The successful execution of what was the Indian Space Research Organization’s (ISRO) first lunar landing mission also placed India in an elite club of countries with the US, Russia and China.
Meanwhile, in Rajasthan, the Congress has promised free electricity for up to 100 units and a flat rate for the next 100 units. Earlier, Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot had promised huge subsidies on cooking gas.
Ahead of the Karnataka Assembly elections, the Congress announced a slew of pledges – free monthly allowances, free 200 units of electricity and 10 kilos of rice – which aided the great old party history in the southern state.
The BJP, still lamenting its defeat, is gleeful at the predicament of the ruling party. BJP MP Pratap Sinha has urged people not to pay electricity bills from June 1 if their consumption falls below 200 units.
