Rajasthan party leader Sachin Pilot has commenced his "Jan Sangharsh Yatra" from Ajmer, intensifying the pressure on Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and the central leadership of the Congress party ahead of the assembly elections. Last month, Pilot, who is also the Tonk MLA and a former deputy of Gehlot, conducted a day-long fast criticizing the state government's alleged inaction in corruption cases during the BJP's tenure.
Before embarking on the five-day, 125-km-long yatra, Pilot addressed a public gathering on the Jaipur Highway in Ajmer, focusing on the issue of leaked question papers for government job recruitments. He questioned the selective treatment of individuals involved in the paper leak and emphasized that his march aims to combat corruption and protect the interests of the youth.
Pilot and Gehlot have been engaged in public clashes for over two years. In 2020, Pilot led a rebellion within the party, seeking a change in leadership. However, Gehlot managed to retain his position, leading to Pilot and his loyalists being subsequently removed from the state cabinet.
The ongoing rift between the two leaders continues to impact the political landscape in Rajasthan. Sachin Pilot's "Jan Sangharsh Yatra" sets the stage for a fierce battle in the upcoming assembly polls as he aims to amplify his voice and consolidate support among the electorate.
