"Sachin Pilot's Turn Won't Come Because...": Amit Shah On Congress Rift
NDTV
Amit Shah said the BJP will form the government in Rajasthan with a 2/3 majority in the assembly elections later this year.
Targeting the Congress in Rajasthan over infighting, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday claimed the party will always give precedence to Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot over Sachin Pilot as his contribution is higher in filling its coffers with the "corruption" money from the state.
"Pilot sits on dharna on any pretext, but his number will not come because his contribution in filling the coffers of Congress party is less and Gehlot's contribution is higher," Mr Shah said while addressing booth-level party workers meeting in Bharatpur.
Mr Gehlot has made the Rajasthan government an "'adda' (hub) of corruption and has looted the state. This money of corruption has gone to the coffers of the Congress party,” the BJP leader alleged.
On the acquittal of the accused in the 2008 Jaipur bomb blast case, Mr Shah alleged that the Congress government did not present proper arguments in the high court due to vote bank politics.
