There will be around 156 small gatherings and 54 big gatherings during this period. With the completion of this Parivartan Yatra, the departure of Ashok Gehlot's government of the Congress from Rajasthan will be confirmed.” Earlier on Saturday (September 2), Bharatiya Janata Party National President JP Nadda flagged off the party's First "Parivartan Sankalp Yatra" in Rajasthan.

Rajasthan is scheduled to go to the polls later this year with the BJP and the incumbent Congress locked in a straight fight. In 2018 the Congress had won 99 seats while the BJP had won 73 seats in the 200-member house. The Congress led by Ashok Gehlot formed the government with the support of Independents and the BSP.
