Pilot, Rahul Gandhi discuss shuffle in Rajasthan |
With a major change in the Congress leadership in the Punjab state, it seems Rajasthan could be the next state where infighting might emerge again. Senior Rajasthan Congress leader Sachin Pilot had a quiet meeting with former party chief Rahul Gandhi. The much-discussed reshuffle in the Ashok Gehlot government in Rajasthan has been hanging fire for some time. The two leaders are learnt to have discussed that, as also the political situation in the state. AICC general secretary in charge of Rajasthan Ajay Maken has made multiple visits to the state and has taken views of all MLAs. A Cabinet reshuffle and inclusion of some MLAs loyal to Pilot besides political appointments to various boards and corporations in the state, has been a repeated demand. Reports said Pilot has been given an assurance again that the reshuffle would take place soon. With the party leadership asserting itself and easing out Captain Amarinder Singh in Punjab, Congress leaders in Rajasthan are also expecting a decisive intervention by the central leadership there.
