Jaipur, February 21 Former Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje broke down on stage after a poem in tribute to her late mother, Rajmata Vijaya Raje Scindia, her father, Jivajirao Scindia, and her brother, Madhavrao Scindia, was recited at a public event in the Jhalawar district on Saturday.
The occasion marked the third phase of MP Dushyant Singh's padyatra, which began from the Mukteshwar temple in Khoyra village.
After listening to the poem, Raje, with a choked voice, said she could never forget the contribution of her parents and brother in her life.
"Without them, life feels very empty," she said.
The BJP leader said her bond with people was "from the heart, not politics" and described the padyatra as a journey for development and public welfare, not for politics.
