‘CONGRESS CHHODO’ TREND

Meanwhile, in Rajasthan, all is not well as Congress leaders loyal to chief minister Ashok Gehlot resigned from the state assembly ahead of the legislature party meeting scheduled for Sunday.

This comes after speculations rose that Sachin Pilot will become the next chief minister after Ashok Gehlot resigns to contest for the Congress Presidential post.
