Following a meeting with Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and Sachin Pilot, the Congress projected a united front on Monday, saying that the two leaders will fight the BJP together in the upcoming elections.
According to reports, the Congress chief Kharge and Rahul Gandhi met with Rajasthan Chief Minister Gehlot and Sachin Pilot in the national capital on Monday for four hours.
Talking to the media after the discussion, KC Venugopal said, “We have decided to fight elections unitedly. Definitely, we will win the elections in Rajasthan. Both Ashok Gehlot and Sachin Pilot have unanimously agreed with the proposal.”
“We have decided that both leaders have agreed to go together. It will be a joint fight against BJP, we will win the state (Rajasthan),” he added.
In light of the political squabble in Rajasthan, the Congress High Command summoned Ashok Gehlot and his deputy Sachin Pilot to separate meetings with party president Mallikarjuna Kharge in the national capital earlier in the day.
Since 2020, Sachin Pilot and Ashok Gehlot have been at odds over power.
On May 30, a delegation led by Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge will meet with President Droupdai Murmu to discuss the state’s situation.
