The Ashok Gehlot government won the motion of confidence on Friday by voice vote. The house has been adjourned till August 21, said Assembly Speaker CP Joshi.

A special assembly session commenced today. This trust vote came after months of Political crisis that went on, after the then Deputy CM Sachin Pilot rebelled against the CM Ashok Gehlot and left the city of Jaipur with 18 other Congress MLAs.

The motion was tabled by Cabinet Minister Shanti Dhariwal. The Speaker gave three hours to debate on the motion before voting. 

Sachin Pilot, while speaking on the motion said the party is now united and has `107 of us here`. Referring to his meeting with the Gandhis, he said he "consulted a doctor in Delhi and was back now."

Replying to the debate on the motion, Parliamentary Affair Minister Shanti Dhariwal blamed the Centre for trying to “topple” the governments in Madhya Pradesh, Manipur and Goa, using money and power, but said a similar attempt in Rajasthan would not succeed.
