Vasundhara Raje, the former Chief Minister of Rajasthan, recently stirred controversy during a visit to the Kamkheda Balaji Dham temple in Jhalawar, where she spoke about her own experience with a national highway project that affected her home in Dholpur. Her statement, 'I could not fight for myself. And when I couldn’t save my own house from being demolished due to the rules, then how will I save yours?' was perceived by some as an admission of failure, leading to significant backlash.
