Rajasthan Political Crisis: In Rajasthan, Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot will remain or someone else will become the Chief Minister. Its decision will be taken in the next two-three days. Gehlot, who is called the magician of politics, has distanced himself by putting the ball in the court of Congress President Sonia Gandhi. At the same time, on the basis of morality, he also refused to become a candidate for the post of party president.
Before meeting Congress President Sonia Gandhi, Gehlot had prepared the blueprint of the entire strategy. Senior party leader Mukul Wasnik is considered his trusted lieutenant. But Gehlot did not reveal his strategy during the meeting. During the meeting with the party president, he has put the ball in Sonia Gandhi’s court by offering to resign from the post of Chief Minister.
Party strategists believe that in the current political situation in Rajasthan, replacing Gehlot and replacing him with a leader of the opposition faction is not easy. Gehlot has the support of MLAs. In such a situation, making a leader from the opposing faction as the Chief Minister can create instability in the state. The party cannot take this risk in the current political situation.
If the party leadership decides to replace Ashok Gehlot as the Chief Minister, then the opinion of the MLAs will have to be accepted. Minister Govindram Meghwal in Rajasthan government has said that if the leader of Pilot faction becomes CM, then Gehlot supporters will resign. We are ready for the midterm elections. This means that they will go to any extent to stop the pilot.
In charge of Gujarat
A senior party leader said Gehlot is the chief observer in the Gujarat Assembly elections. More than a dozen ministers and MLAs of his government are handling the election responsibility. State in-charge Raghu Sharma is also from Rajasthan. Removal of Gehlot from the post of Chief Minister will affect the election strategy. Hence, Gehlot can be retained in the post till the Gujarat elections.
challenge to leadership
At the same time, many other leaders are of the opinion that Gehlot has challenged the party high command, so he should be removed from the post immediately. These leaders are of the opinion that party observers should be sent to Jaipur and take the opinion of the MLAs and another leader should be made the Chief Minister in place of Gehlot. In such a situation, it is clear that whether Gehlot remains the Chief Minister or not, it will be decided by Sonia Gandhi.
Congress President will decide on the Chief Minister of Rajasthan
Party General Secretary and organization in-charge KC Venugopal said that Congress President Sonia Gandhi will take a decision about the Chief Minister of Rajasthan in a day or two. He gave this information after meeting the party president.
