There are reports that former deputy chief minister of Rajasthan, Sachin Pilot, is expected to address two public events in the state on Monday, amidst a tussle with the Ashok Gehlot government over alleged inaction in cases of corruption when the BJP ruled Rajasthan. Pilot had recently sat on a daylong fast in Jaipur, urging the Gehlot government to act on these cases. Pilot’s move was considered “anti-party” by the Congress central leadership. BJP MLA Rajendra Rathore questioned why Pilot did not raise these issues in the House earlier or during the initial days of the government.
After his recent fast, Sachin Pilot claimed that he had raised the issue of corruption during the BJP rule and promised action against the guilty once Congress came to power. However, no action has been taken yet, even after four years of Congress rule. On the other hand, BJP MLA Rajendra Rathore, who is the Leader of Opposition in the Rajasthan Assembly, has questioned why Pilot did not raise these issues earlier or during the initial days of the Congress government if he had evidence.
