The manifesto, released in the presence of BJP president Rajnath Singh and Rajasthan's chief ministerial candidate Vasundhara Raje, promises five percent reservation for Gujjars, jobs for youth, development of educational infrastructure for minorities and rehabilitation of Pakistani Hindus among several other things.

Rajasthan's chief ministerial candidate Vasundhara Raje said that they will provide employment opportunities to 1.5 million youths. We will also ensure uninterrupted electricity supply 24 hours a day. The manifesto also promises to provide loans to farmers on one percent interest rate and introduction of Agriculture Security Act. Amid rising incidents of rapes and atrocities on women, BJP has promised to work towards security of women. BJP has also promised to provide five percent reservation to socially backward castes like Gujjar, Rebari and Raika communities under the ninth schedule of the Constitution.

Vasundhara Raje added that if they come to power, Madrassas (Islamic seminaries) will be connected with vocational education. They will come up with a separate ministry for cow shelter, constitute a commission for middle class and provide loan up to Rs.20 lakh for registered unemployed youths at subsidized rates. Constitution of Police Welfare Board and mobile medical vans in remote rural areas are also some of the promises.
