Sad to see Sachin Pilot getting sidelined by Gehlot, tweets Jyotiraditya Scindia

New Delhi: As the political developments are taking an interesting turn in Rajasthan and the situation is getting intensified, former Congress leader Jyotiraditya Scindia attacked Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot by tweeting that he was feeling sad to see his erstwhile colleague, Sachin Pilot, being sidelined and persecuted.

Jyotiraditya Scindia tweeted:

Sad to see my erstwhile colleague, @SachinPilot too, being sidelined and persecuted by Rajasthan CM, @ashokgehlot51 . Shows that talent and capability find little credence in the @INCIndia .

The crisis in Rajasthan Congress has deepened with state Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and his deputy Sachin Pilot at loggerheads.

While Gehlot is blaming BJP for trying to destabilise the state government by poaching MLAs, Pilot is camping in Delhi to speak to the party leadership regarding the political turmoil in the state.

Jyotiraditya Scindia and Sachin Pilot both, were seen as promising leaders of the Congress. They belong to younger generation of Congress leaders which often finds itself at odds with the old guard in the party.
