For your information, let us tell you that the Congress has nominated the party's general secretaries KC Venugopal and Neeraj Dangi, while the BJP has fielded Rajendra Gehlot and Omkar Singh Lakhawat. Given the party's party conditions, only Rajendra Gehlot will be able to win. The most interesting thing is whether the assembly speaker CP Joshi will vote or not.

MLAs of the National Democratic Party will also vote in favor. In this case, the total vote of BJP is 75.
