Former Chief Minister
Vasundhara Raje's five-year term as Chief Minister was marked by a strong focus on infrastructure-building and social initiatives.
As the Finance Minister, Raje was able to steer the state from a budget deficit into a budget surplus for the first time since the 1991-1992 budget, in accordance with the guidelines of the 12th Finance Commission.
Rajasthan became self-sufficient in power generation, and massive road and canal-building projects were undertaken under her administration.

On the social front, Vasundhara introduced mid-day meal schemes for mothers, insurance schemes, transportation vouchers for girl students and skills training for workers.
