Congress had dominated the politics of the state of Rajasthan in western part of the country for three decades after independence. Congress Chief Minister Mohanlal Sukhadia successfully ran the government in the state for 17 years (1954 to 1971). Later in 1977 first non-congress government came into the state when Bhairon Singh Shekhawat, from Jansangh the predecessor of BJP, become the chief minister and successfully remain in power till 1980. In 1989, when the BJP came to power for the first time in any state, it was Rajasthan, when Bhairon Singh Shekhawat once again became the Chief Minister and for the next 8 years he dominated the politics of the state. Now since last two decades, a direct fight is being seen in Rajasthan assembly elections between the senior Congress leader Ashok Gehlot and BJP leader Vasundhara Raje as they have ruled the state alternatively. In year 2018 i had successfully forecast the victory of Congress party in assembly elections in Rajasthan. Now this year BJP’s Vasundhara Raje’s stars appears to be bright and she has the best chance to become the chief minister of the state for third time equaling record with her friendly rival Ashok Gehlot.
Astrological Forecast for Rajasthan Assembly Elections 2018- Posted on 27 October 2018
The present Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has been the Chief Minister thrice, while Vasundhara Raje has been the Chief Minister for two terms. Vasundhara Raje is trying hard to get the command of the state for the third time in the assembly elections. Along with this, young Congress leader Sachin Pilot will also be in the race for the post of Chief Minister, who in the year 2020 rebelled against his own state government and increased the difficulties of the party.
On July 14th in 2020 when Sachin Pilot was revolting with about 18 MLA’s and had put Ashot Gehlot’s government under danger i had successfully forecast the survival of Congress government in Rajasthan. I had also predicted that Ashok Gehlot will complete his full tenure of 5 years and this prediction of mine had appear in Modern Astrology Magazine and also at the website of Hindi News Paper Navbhart Times for which i contribute regularly.
Sachin Pilot, the young face of Congress from Rajasthan, was born on September 7, 1977, at 5.28 am in Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh, with a balance of 0 years 4 months 22 days of Mars Dasha at birth.
Chart 1. Horoscope of Sachin Pilot
The Leo lagna horoscope of Sachin Pilot has a very good Raja Yoga of 9th and 4th lord Yogakaraka Mars in conjunction with 5th lord Jupiter. But Jupiter and Mars are at degree conjunction and their declination is also the same. Thus, it is a case of ‘Graha Yuddha’ or Planetary war as per the Parashari Principals. Apart from the ‘Graha Yuddha’ the conjunction of 12th lord Moon also makes this Raja Yoga of Mars and Jupiter a little weak. Then all the planets, except the nodes, are in three Rashi only which is a Nabhas Yoga called ‘Shoola Yoga’ considered inauspicious. The fiery sign Leo rising at the ascendant with “Shoola Yoga” makes him highly ambitious.
Raja Yoga in the eleventh house of Pilot’s horoscope make him win Lok Sabha election in 2004 at the age of just 26 years. He became a Lok Sabha MP and soon became a Minister of State in the Manmohan Singh government. In December 2018, during the enigmatic Saturn Dasha and Venus Anter Dasha his party won the assembly elections while he was the state president of Rajasthan Congress, but Saturn-Venus sitting in the twelfth house didn’t gave him the post of Chief Minister.
Saturn Dasha and Moon Anter Dasha from January 2023 to August 2024 is not so favorable at present as these Dasha lords are 2/12 from each other in the birth chart and in Dashamasha they are at 6/8 position which is unfavorable. Saturn as the 6th and 7th lord in the 12th house can produce bad results for Sachin Pilot.
Sachin Pilot will not be able to get more tickets for his supporters for the assembly, due to which his position seems to be weakening in the state. There is no possibility of him becoming the chief minister in Saturn’s Vinshottari Dasha and Moon Anter Dasha which is running at present.
The transiting Saturn from Aquarius gets only 21 points in Sarvashtaka Varga. In Bhinnashtaka Varga of Saturn we get only 1 point in Aquarius sign so the transit is also unhelpful for Sachin Pilot. At the time of assembly elections Saturn Dasha , Moon Anter Dasha and Saturn Pratyanter Dasha from September to December months would be operating which is unfavorable.
Difficult Jaimini Chara Dasha for Pilot
As per the Jaimini system the Chara Dasha of Aquarius and Anter Dasha of Scorpio would be running at the time of assembly elections (8th of May to 7th of December) in Pilot’s horoscope. Amatayakaraka Sun from Leo aspect the 12th house of Dasha Rashi Aquarius which is not favorable.
A fixed sign aspect the movable sign as per the Jaimini system. Amatayakaraka Sun in Leo also aspect the 12th house from Anter Dasha Rashi Scorpio which is unfavorable for Pilot and his dream to become the chief minister of the state will be shattered once again.
Chart 2. Horoscope of Ashok Gehlot
Ashok Gehlot’s ‘Paap Kartari’ yoga can become a big obstacle for him in the upcoming assembly elections. Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot was born on May 3, 1951 at 9.50 am in Jodhpur Rajasthan with a balance of 1 years 3 months 09 days of Saturn Dasha at birth.
In Ashok Gehlot’s Kundli, the auspicious Gaj Kesari Yoga of Guru-Chandra is being formed at the tenth house of position. The strongly placement of Mars, Sun and Mercury in the eleventh house gave him the post of Chief Minister for the third time when he was running under the auspicious Maha Dasha of Mars and Anter Dasha of Sun in December 2018.
In Gemini lagna horoscope of current chief minister Ashok Gehlot the Vimshottari Dasha of Rahu and Anter Dasha of Jupiter is running from April 2022 to September 2024. Rahu is in the 9th house from his Janma lagna Gemini which is good. But its depositor Saturn is in the 4th house and is not making any Raja yoga as it is in mutual aspect with 2nd lord Moon and 7th lord Jupiter. As per Laghu Parashari Jupiter and Saturn don’t make any Raja Yoga for a Gemini lagna native. It was no surprise that Ashok Gehlot has to face many problems in running the government during his Rahu Dasha which started from August 2019. Although Rahu is not afflicted by any functional malefic in birth chart and in Navamsha it is strongly placed in the 4th house so he continued with power despite facing major rebellion by Sachin Pilot in July 2020 when a difficult Rahu-Rahu-Saturn period was running in Vimshottari.
Presently he is under the Maha Dasha of Rahu sitting in the ninth house and Antar Dasha of the Jupiter sitting in the tenth house . But the noticeable point here is that his Jupiter is trapped in an inauspicious ‘Paap Kartari’ yoga as it is being surrounded by malefic planets from both the sides. So the auspicious effects of Jupiter’s Gaja Kesari Yoga due to its conjunction with Moon will get reduce. He will feel constrained due to the lack of support from local leaders and this would adversely affect his election campaign.
In Dashamasha Jupiter is in the 4th house but get the aspects of malefic Mars and Saturn both. Rahu Dasha , Jupiter Anter Dasha and Venus Pratyanter Dasha at the time of assembly polls is not likely to be favorable for Gehlot as his Pratyanter Dasha lord Venus is in the 12th house of birth chart and in Navamsha it goes into the 8th house.
Unfavorable Transit and Weak Jaimini Chara Dasha of Ashok Gehlot
Rahu in transit will move out of Aries and start affecting his natal Jupiter in Pisces just a few days before the elections which as per a Bhrigu rule is not a favorable condition.
In the birth chart of Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot Jaimini Chara Dasha of Virgo started from May 2021. Virgo is the Rashi of his Karakamsha lagna as his Atamakaraka Venus goes into this Rashi in his Navamsha chart. The 8th house from Virgo has Amatayakaraka Mars, Ganatikaraka Mercury and Bhatrikaraka Sun which is not good as these planets are in movable sign and aspect the 12th house from Dasha Rashi Virgo. Now at the time of elections Dasha of Virgo and Anter Dasha of Aries would be running in the Chara Dasha scheme which is a Dasha of 6/8 from each other. This unfavorable Dasha in Jaimini can give him loss of position.
Inauspicious Varsha Kundali of Ashok Gehlot
In the annual horoscope for completed year 72 for Ashok Gehlot ‘Muntha’ or progressed lagna is in Gemini which is his Janma lagna. But Muntha here is in the 8th house from the rising sign Scorpio which is an adverse position as per Tajik Neelkanthi. Interestingly Scorpio is the 6th house of his Janma lagna Gemini. So, the rising sign in Varshaphala and the position of Muntha both are unfavorable for Ashok Gehlot. In the Varshaphala or annual horoscope the bad exchange between the 6th lord Mars and 8th lord Mercury shows loss of position because of an intrigue against him. So, Ashok Gehlot is likely to face a defeat in a closely fought assembly elections because of an intrigue in his own party most likely by Sachin Pilot who has been creating troubles for him since years now.
Chart 3. Horoscope of Vasundhara Raje
Vasundhara Raje’s was born on March 8, 1953 at 4.45 pm in Mumbai, Maharashtra, with a balance of 11 years 9 months 17 days of Mercury Dasha at birth.
Vasundhara Raje belongs to the famous Scindia royal family of Gwalior. In her kundli of Cancer Ascendant, the lord of the 7th house of ‘Pada Prapati’ and fame is Saturn which is exalted in Libra and and is placed in the 4t house of ‘Simhasan’ or throne. Saturn is in the 4th house is in mutual aspect with Jupiter which is the lord of 9th house of luck and Venus the lord of 4th house is involve in a strong Raj Yoga. Along with this, in her horoscope, there is a beautiful ‘Parivartan Raja Yoga’ of 9th house lord Jupiter in the 10th house and the 10th house lord Mars is in the 9th house. This ‘Dharma-Karma Adhipati’ yoga is the most auspicous Raj Yoga, which made her the Chief Minister of the state twice and is now making her a strong contender for this post for the third time as well.
After the election defeat in 2018 she was out of consideration by the senior BJP leadership during her Rahu Dasha and Saturn Anter Dasha from January 2020 to December 2022. As per the news reports after the defeat in Karnataka assembly polls this year BJP’s senior leadership had again started giving her importance in the matter of running the election strategy in the state. Several senior leaders in Rajasthan BJP like Satish Poonia, Gulab Chand Kataria, Gajendra Singh Shekhawat were jostling with each other to become the CM face for the saffron party in the state.
Favorable ‘Neecha Bhanga Raja Yoga of Mercury’
Although her party BJP announced to contest this assembly election on the face of Prime Minister Narendra Modi but the Vinshottari Dasha of Mercury and Anter Dasha of Rahu running in Vasundhara Raje’s Cancer Ascendant horoscope is giving her astrological assurance of victory in all adverse situations. Mercury being the lord of the third and 12th house in her Cancer Ascendant is a functional malefic planet. But, being debilitated, Mercury is sitting in the ninth house of fortune and is conjunct with Mars, the lord of the tenth house. Due to this favorable position Mercury is getting a magnificent ‘Neech Bhang Raja Yoga’ which can make Vasundhara Raje the ‘Queen’ of Rajasthan’ for the third time.
At the time of assembly elections Rahu Dasha , Mercury Anter Dasha and Sun Pratyanter Dasha would be running from 13 November to 29th December this year. The Pratyanter Dasha lord Sun is badly placed in the 8th house so her political powers will get constrain even after winning the elections as central leadership of party may appoint two deputy chief minister’s under her to pacify the power struggle in the state unit.
In transit Saturn is getting 29 points in Sarvashtaka Varga which is good. But Saturn transiting in the 4th house from her natal Moon and 8th house form the lagna is unfavorable. In Bhinnashtaka Varga of Saturn we get 6 points which are very favorable. The transiting Rahu will move out of Aries which is her 10th house and over her natal Jupiter just a few days before the elections which would be favorable for her. The transit of Rahu over natal Jupiter is unfavorable generally. So when Rahu moves away from her natal Jupiter then she will be some favorable results during election campaign.
Favorable Annual horoscope for Vasundhara Raje
In the annual horoscope for completed year 70 Cancer sign is rising which is the Rashi of her Janma lagna. When Rashi of Janma lagan rise in the annual horoscope (Varshaphala) then that year is called ‘Dwi-Janma Lagna’ and is regarded very crucial for the native. In case of Vasundhara Raje the ‘Muntha’ or progressed lagna is Taurus which is the 11th house of her birth chart. In the Varshaphala I am using Parashari aspects as per the method of my teacher Shri K.N. Rao. As per this technique in the Varshaphala of Vasundhara Raje the aspect of 9th lord Jupiter on the Janma lagan from the 9th house is very favorable. The 10th lord Mars is in the 11th house of gains along with Muntha is also good. Then there are very good mutual aspects between benefic planets Moon, Venus and Jupiter in her annual horoscope. She is likely to achieve a good success in the upcoming assembly polls and will become the chief minister of Rajasthan.
