Ashok Gehlot missing from Rajesh Pilot commemoration event

India TV News  

The presence of Rajasthan Deputy Chief Minister Sachin Pilot along with 62 MLAs, including 15 state Ministers, in Dausa to observe the death anniversary of former Union Minister Rajesh Pilot has sparked much speculation among political circles in the state. Meanwhile, the absence of Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on the occasion showed up the growing factionalism within the Rajasthan Congress, which refuses to die down despite warnings from the party's central leadership. "This can be termed as a show of strength of Pilot camp which has been growing and strengthening ever since the party witnessed a collapse in the Lok Sabha elections, reducing its tally to zero," a senior Congress worker told IANS on Wednesday. State ministers present at the Dausa prayer meeting included Health Minister Raghu Sharma, Social Justice and Empowerment Minister Bhanwarlal Meghwal, Cooperation Minister Udailal Anjana, Transport Minister Pratap Singh Khachriyawas, Woman and Child Development Minister Mamta Bhupesh, Education Minister Govind Singh Dotasara, among others.
