BJP MP Mokariya ditches luxury for Swadeshi, embraces Titan over Rolex
The Free Press Journal - Mumbai
|September 27, 2025
In a rare move that has stirred conversations in Gujarat’s political circles, Rajya Sabha MP Rambhai Mokariya has taken Prime Minister Narendra Modis call — “Say proudly, I buy Swadeshi” — to heart.
Known for his collection of luxury watches and foreign cars, Mokariya has voluntarily abandoned his Rolex and Rado timepieces and replaced them witha humble Titan wristwatch worth Rs3,100. He has also stopped using his Land Cruiser for personal travel, pledging to purchase a safer, Indian-made vehicle instead.
This dramatic shift comes in the backdrop of Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah's recent visit to Rajkot, which appears to have reignited Mokariya’s political relevance. Once sidelined, the veteran MP is suddenly back in the spotlight, with BJP leaders not only inviting him to key events but also seen sharing tea at his office.
