New Delhi: Hitting out at former Congress leader Jyotiraditya Scindia over his exit from the party after an 18-year-long association with it, Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Wednesday said “such opportunists should have left the party much earlier” adding that “people will teach him a lesson”.
“Such opportunists should have left the party much earlier. Congress party gave him so much for 18 years. People will teach him a lesson,” Gehlot told media here at Jaipur Airport.
Rajasthan CM: Everyone can see how democracy is being murdered. MLAs are coming to Jaipur, you can see what kind of horse-trading attempts are being made there (in MP). Aisa nanga naach kabhi nahi dekha gaya hai, jo satta mein baithe huye log kar rahe hain. We stand together. https://t.co/QzAAmXL4vF

Reacting to the issue, he said: “Mauka aane pe maukaparasti dikhai hai”. The Congress has been witnessing an internal turf war in Madhya Pradesh since the party formed the government in the state in 2018.
Since Tuesday, uncertainty loomed large over the fate of Chief Minister Kamal Nath-led Congress government in Madhya Pradesh after Scindia and 22 MLAs resigned from the party on Tuesday.
