Deeg-Kumher assembly constituency, although relatively new in Rajasthan, has been identified as one of the state’s most hot or contentious seats.

After Bharatiya Janata Party’s Dr. Shailesh Singh’s victory in the 2023 Rajasthan Legislative Assembly election, both families have inflicted two defeats on the other.

Hence forcing, Vishvendra Singh, the King of the erstwhile Bharatpur state, to contest assembly election.

The 2008 merger of the two constituencies led to the face-off between the former King of Bharatpur & the senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader serving as a Cabinet Minister.

In response, the Maharaj of Bharatpur, shifting loyalties, joined the Indian National Congress to contest from the seat.

The election was witness to high fuzz and emotionally manipulative appeals, including Vishvendra’s wife campaigning in a white saree, worn by Indian women in case of death in family, to gain sympathy votes for her husband.

In the 2023 Rajasthan Legislative Assembly elections, with positions interchanged, Digamber Singh’s family engaged in high drama to strengthen their hold.
