Congress issues notice to Sachin Pilot

Congress has issued a notice to ex deputy CM Sachin Pilot and 18 other party members for not attending the Congress Legislative Party (CLP) meetings. State party in charge Avinash Pandey said that Pilot and the party members have two days to respond after which the party would consider withdrawing their membership from the CLP.

Pilot, along with his camp of supporting lawmakers, skipped the Congress legislature meetings in Jaipur on Monday and on Tuesday that recommended action against him and sought to discuss his political fallout with chief minister Ashok Gehlot.

Notice issued to Sachin Pilot&18 other party members, for not attending Congress Legislative Party meetings. If they don’t respond within 2 days, then it will be considered that they are withdrawing their membership from CLP: Rajasthan Congress in-charge Avinash Pande.

Meanwhile Sachin clarified that he is not joining BJP and still in congress shows he want to avoid disqualification under anti defection law .

The truth can be harassed but not defeated,” Sachin Pilot reacted in a tweet. Later, he added: “My heartfelt thanks and gratitude to all those who have come out in my support today. Ram Ram Sa!” His supporters said the “public humiliation” of their leader was “totally unacceptable” to them and those who treated him badly should be punished.

Before Sachin Pilot’s rebellion, the Congress had 107 MLAs besides the support of 13 independents and five members from smaller parties. That number has now come down to 90 Congress MLAs, seven independent members and three from smaller parties – 100. Sachin Pilot has at least 20 MLAs on his side – 17 Congress and three independent legislators.

Mr Gehlot is banking on Sachin Pilot and other rebels being disqualified, which will bring down the half-way mark and fortify his numbers if he has to face a test of strength.

The Congress made several attempt to reach out to Mr Pilot and many leaders said how things went down was “sad”. Congress leader Randeep Singh Surjewala had said: “Doors are open for Sachin Pilot and other MLAs. They will be heard and solutions found. This is the discipline of the party,”
