Gehlot calls second CLP meet with a whip issued for all Congress MLAs to attend the meeting

  • | Tuesday | 14th July, 2020

“Strict disciplinary action will be taken against any MLA who is absent without mentioning personal/special reason,” Pande said.

After the first CLP meeting failed to recall MLAs from Sachin Pilot camp, Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has called a second meeting on Tuesday with a whip issued for all Congress MLAs to attend the meeting.

Rajasthan Congress in-charge Avinash Pande said late on Sunday that the party has issued a whip to mandate the presence of all the party’s MLAs during Monday morning meeting.

“Strict disciplinary action will be taken against any MLA who is absent without mentioning personal/special reason,” Pande said.

Pande once again blamed the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for the political crisis in the state.

“Congress is strongly working together. The BJP is deliberately diverting the present situation. This conspiracy has been hatched by the BJP,” he said.

Pilot’s camp said in a late-night statement released on WhatsApp that the deputy chief minister has the backing of about 30 legislators in the 200-member assembly.

“The Ashok Gehlot government is in minority after over 30 Congress and some independent MLAs have pledged their support to Sachin Pilot,” said the statement released by Pilot’s media office.
