Turmoil in Raj BJP as Kirori Lal Meena quits as agriculture minister

Meena had said he would quit the state cabinet if the BJP loses any of the seven Lok Sabha seats under his responsibility. Although he did not specify which seats, it was believed that he referred to his home district of Dausa and that of CM Sharma, Bharatpur, and 5 other seats of eastern Rajasthan. The BJP's loss in these seats had led to speculation that Meena might resign. The BJP lost 11 out of the 25 Lok Sabha seats in Rajasthan.
