Jaipur. The war of Ashok Gehlot vs Sachin Pilot in Rajasthan Congress is going on since the year 2020. Sachin Pilot also showed rebellious attitude in 2020. In the last days, the power of Rajasthan slipped in his hands. After this, now Sachin Pilot has spoken his mind on Tuesday. In a special conversation with NDTV, Sachin Pilot said that he was very sad when Ashok Gehlot called him a traitor. This statement of Sachin has come at a time when Rahul Gandhi is on Bharat Jodo Yatra in Rajasthan. It is also clear from this statement that Sachin Pilot’s mind is full against Gehlot and it can also become a big challenge for the Congress leadership in next year’s Rajasthan assembly elections.
In a conversation with NDTV, Sachin Pilot said that I am a leader, but also a human being. I feel sorry (for being called a traitor), but I don’t want to go back in time. He further said that I always maintain dignity in public life. I have work and mission in hand. We have to move forward. This statement of Sachin Pilot is a reply to the statement made by Ashok Gehlot a few days ago. Then Gehlot called Sachin Pilot a traitor in a conversation with a TV channel. Ashok Gehlot had said that Sachin Pilot should never be handed over the power of Rajasthan for this reason. Even before that, Gehlot had accused Sachin Pilot that he tried to topple his government by conniving with the BJP. Listen to what Sachin Pilot said.

Let us inform that on September 25 this year, the then Congress President Sonia Gandhi had sent Mallikarjun Kharge and Ajay Maken to Jaipur. Both the leaders had called a meeting of the MLAs. After which the pro-Gehlot MLAs took a rebellious stand. These MLAs had clearly said that they do not approve of Sachin Pilot being given the command of Rajasthan under any circumstances. More than 90 MLAs had also given their collective resignation to the Assembly Speaker CP Joshi. Sachin Pilot had also demanded action against the pro-Gehlot leaders who were the leaders of that rebellion. However, till now the Congress high command has not taken any step in this direction even after receiving the report.
