Union Minister for Defence and BJP candidate declared his assets while filing the nomination for the Lok Sabha elections.
Rajagopal, who was inducted into the Vajpayee ministry after getting elected to the Rajya Sabha from Madhya Pradesh, did his homework even before the polls were announced, touring the constituency to explain the development work he had taken up as Minister of State in Railways, Urban Development and then Defence.
The BJP hopes to capitalise on the carefully built image of its candidate among the middle class whose general view is that Rajagopal had done his bit for his home state though he got elected from Madhya Pradesh.
