Ashok Gehlot's election as Congress chief remains all but doneas he has Gandhis' backing; he wanted to keep both posts but gave in eventually
The Congress has called meeting of all its MLAs in Rajasthan amid buzz that Ashok Gehlot may finally make way for Sachin Pilot to take over as Chief Minister while he moves to becoming Congress President.
The party headquarters in Delhi is involved directly — senior leader Mallikarjun Kharge has been appointed Observer, and Ajay Maken, the state in-charge, will attend — which means the state's top post is likely to be the agenda.
Ashok Gehlot's election as Congress President next month remains all but done as he has the Gandhis' backing. And after some dithering and pushback, he has acceded to the party rule of 'one man, one post'.
