A black Innova with four occupants snailed towards a video journalist, standing across the road in front of Congress working president Sonia Gandhi’s official residence in Lutyens’ Delhi, at 5.30 pm on Thursday. With all cameras turned towards Gandhi’s house, a man on the front seat necked out and entreated the journalist to share inputs on visitors. “He introduced himself as an MLA from Rajasthan and wanted to know what was going on,” the journalist told Newslaundry.
It was Prithviraj Meena, an MLA from Todabhim in Karauli district part of Sachin Pilot’s faction, amid Rajasthan’s ongoing political crisis – triggered by chief minister Ashok Gehlot reportedly agreeing to run for the post of Congress president and his camp opposing the possible elevation of Pilot as CM.
