But there has been a ruckus about his tweet expressing his condolences. There has been a controversy on Ashok Gehlot for giving respect to a particular member of the community. In fact, in the first tweet, CM Gehlot expressed regret only to the family members over the incident in Sriganganagar. In which Bhavna, Ankit, Nisha, Radhe and Anshu died due to drowning. Whereas in another tweet, expressing grief, he has also announced financial assistance of Rs 5-5 to the families of the deceased.

Taking a jibe at Ashok Gehlot, he wrote, “Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot’s heart was filled with condolences for one family, he announced a compensation of 5 lakhs, also raised the courage of the bereaved family but only consolation for the other family. Seeing the compensation religion… this is the “secularism” of the Congress.
