New Delhi: The terror issue has taken over the assembly election campaign in Rajasthan. 
 
The BJP has set aside every other issue and is banking on terror to sail through. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is to visit Rajasthan on Monday to attend a rally. 
 
While the nation struggles to put behind the Mumbai horror show, the BJP seems to have finally found focus on what it wants to go big on, as the poll issue in the Rajasthan elections. 
 
With BJP's belief that the Mumbai misfortune will bring it political gain, terror has taken over in election rallies and in the party's newspaper ad campaigns. 
 
"The problem is that everybody for the last so many years and especially the Congress party has been making this into a political issue and as a result they haven't been able to take the kind of stand that they should have," said Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje. 
 
The Congress has been just as quick to counter-attack with a list of terror strikes during the NDA rule and in the BJP ruled states. 
 
Former Rajasthan Chief Minister and AICC Gen Secretary-Jaipur Ashok Gehlot said, "People can see through this campaign. People know when NDA was in power, the Parliament was attacked, Akshardham happened and it was their government which took terrorists to Kandahar. People cannot forget that." 
 
The BJP's election campaign relies on terror alone and everything else has taken a backseat. The Congress is desperate not to let terror eclipse every other political issue. 
 
Congress Gen Secretary Rahul Gandhi spoke at Nathdwara and said, "While we do need to fight terror we also first need to fight poverty."
