Gehlot should explain his contradiction: Pilot
Speaking at a press conference, Rajasthan's former deputy chief minister said, "Gehlot alleges that BJP tried to topple his government. Then he says a BJP leader helped save his government. He should explain the contradiction." "I now understand why no action was taken against corruption by the Raje government despite my repeated requests," he added.
Pilot announces 'Jan Sangharsh Yatra' against corruption
Pilot further stated that he has tolerated several verbal "abuses" from Gehlot over the past two-and-a-half years. "Despite such abuses, I didn't say anything as I didn't want to damage the party. I was accused of being a traitor." Pilot also announced a Jan Sangharsh Yatra from Ajmer to Jaipur, saying, "The yatra is not against anyone but is against corruption."
