Her decision to opt out from the seat that was earlier held by Prime Minister, Narendra Modi till 2014, has stirred the political waters in Vadodara, where there has been noticeable dissent regarding her candidacy.
In the days leading up to her announcement, various posters and banners were displayed throughout the city, voicing opposition to her potential third term.
This discontent in the party’s ranks and the electorate will now force the BJP to reassess its candidate selection for this constituency as the general elections draw near.
