Answering another query, Ajay said the BJP-JJP coalition government would last five years. He said, "Earlier BJP used to be our - referring to the
Indian National Lok Dal
(INLD) - junior ally and today it is the other way round."
Ajay said he had helped BJP in forming the government led by Bhairon Singh Shekhawat twice in Rajasthan. He said, "We have to take the state forward in terms of development and 75% reservation will be given to the state's youth in jobs in private sector. Work has been started to implement other major pre-poll announcements. We will try to fulfil all promises made to the public."
The former MP further said Congress was "untouchable" and there was no question of JJP joining hands with it.
