New Delhi: Facing a revolt from his deputy Sachin Pilot, Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot today hit back with a show of strength at his official residence. About 90-100 are supposed to have attended Congress Legislature Party (CLP) meet at Gehlot’s residence, hinting that the scales have tilted in favour of the incumbent Chief Minister.
Ashok Gehlot has alleged BJP of conspiring to topple his government by indulging in horse-trading, a charge denied by the opposition party.
