 | | The Congress is hoping to retain the Jhunjhunu Lok Sabha seat with the hope that four months incumbency of the BJP government would bring back the Jat vote back to the party now that Ashok Gehlot, the then Congress chief minister and his government (the twin-factor that alienated Jats) are not in the scene. |
