Jaipur:
Bhajan Lal Sharma took oath as the Chief Minister of Rajasthan today at a grand event in Jaipur that was attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Bhajan Lal Sharma, a first-time MLA from Sanganer, was named the Chief Minister of Rajasthan by the BJP on Tuesday.
Mr Sharma has two deputies – “People’s princess” Diya Kumari, who was an aspirant for the top post – and senior leader Prem Chand Bairwa.
Diya Kumari and Prem Chand Bairwa were sworn-in as Deputy Chief Ministers immediately after Bhajan Lal Sharma took oath.
The oath event was attended by Home Minister Amit Shah, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and the chief ministers of some BJP-ruled states among others.
It also happens to be Bhajan Lal Sharma’s birthday today.
The 56-year-old, initially associated with the ABVP, the student wing of the party’s ideological mentor Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, has always kept a low profile. He is seen as an organisation man by party colleagues.
