Jaipur, Aug 20 (IBNS) The results of elections to 129 civic bodies in 31 districts of Rajasthan will be announced on Thursday in what is the first acid test Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje goes through after the Congress tagged her name with scam-tainted cricket tycoon Lalit Modi.

Voting was held on Monday
 
 Raje's party, the BJP  is confident of posting yet another big win after sweeping  the Assembly and national elections in the state in less than two years.

But the  opposition Congress hopes that the allegations raised against Raje on account of her links with Lalit Modi will be her waterloo.
 

On Monday, the civic elections recorded  a 76 per cent voter turnout. BJP president Ashok Parnami claimed that  the high voter turnout showed that people endorsed the 21-month -old Raje government's development work.
