Congress chief Kharge to meet CM Gehlot and Pilot separately today; efforts for reconciliation on the cards
The office of the chief minister has also confirmed Gehlot's itinerary, which includes his visit to Delhi and the inauguration ceremony for the Rajasthan House, where he will also lay the foundation stone.
Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge is scheduled to conduct separate meetings with Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and his rival Sachin Pilot in Delhi on Monday, news agency PTI reported citing sources inside the Congress.
The office of the chief minister has also confirmed Gehlot's itinerary, which includes his visit to Delhi and the inauguration ceremony for the Rajasthan House, where he will also lay the foundation stone.
Meeting ahead of Pilot's 'ultimatum' ends
The forthcoming meeting comes after Pilot's recent "ultimatum" in which he stated that if the state government fails to fulfill three demands he made, he would initiate a widespread protest throughout the state before the end of this month.
One of Pilot's demands is for a thorough investigation to be conducted at a high level into the alleged scams that occurred during the former Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje's tenure.
Rajasthan leadership's May 26 meeting was postponed
As per a senior Congress leader, a meeting involving the top leadership of the Congress party and all state leaders was originally planned for May 26 but was subsequently postponed.
The senior leader stated that the party's high command will now hold separate meetings with Gehlot and Pilot in order to reconcile their differences and unite them ahead of the upcoming assembly elections, which are scheduled for later this year.
Congress eyes to implement Karnataka formula
Kharge was able to successfully reconcile Siddaramaiah and D K Shivakumar in Karnataka, and now the party intends to apply the same approach in Rajasthan, he said.
The senior leader also mentioned that a few days ago, a meeting between the Congress high command and leaders from several states, including Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Telangana, which are heading towards elections, was scheduled but got postponed.
