I have had no problems till now with PM: Vasundhara Raje

TIL Desk/National/Jaipur/Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje today dismissed reports of her having differences with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said this was a “perception” created by the media as both of them talk when it is required.

Raje also called it an “imaginary talk” when asked if she was angry that her MP son Dushyant Singh was not given a berth in the Narendra Modi-led government that took charge in 2014.

“You all have tried to create that perception (she and Modi not gelling together)…that I am a ‘maharani’…this is how it is…how far will you create perceptions? I have had no problems till now (with the PM).

“Things are going good in the state…whenever there is a positive development you would be reading the tweets (by the PM) too. I never feel so..if it is about perception then you help us change it,” she said when asked if the opposition was correct in saying that things do not gel (‘banti nahin’) between her and the PM.

“You will not talk everyday…no one talks to me everyday when it comes to state affairs. When requirement arises, we talk, we meet and conferences are held and issues are exchanged. When there is requirement we do. There could be a perception problem with you but nothing between us (Raje and Modi),” she said.
