Signalling a truce with Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, senior Congress leader Sachin Pilot on July 6 said every member will work together to ensure that the Congress government continues in the State, which is usually known to vote out an incumbent government.
After a four-hour brainstorming session at the All India Congress Committee (AICC) headquarters on the upcoming Assembly polls, party general secretary (organisation) K.C. Venugopal, asserted that a “united leadership” will face the polls and warned of strict action if any leader raises internal matters outside the party forum.
The meeting was presided by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and was attended by senior leaders including Rahul Gandhi, Mr. Venugopal, Mr. Pilot, AICC’s Rajasthan in-charge Sukhjinder Randhawa and State unit chief Govind Dotasra among others. Mr. Gehlot, who had recently injured his toes, virtually joined the election strategy meeting.
