Asked for a report from the state president of the leaders who made rhetoricVenugopal said on the question of action against the leaders who made statements after the advisory – Which leaders have given statements after my instructions, I have sought clarification from Congress State President Govind Singh Dotasara. There will be action.
Point to point route of 521 kilometer journey will be finalized soonThe point-to-point route plan of Rahul Gandhi's journey from Jhalawar to Alwar district covering a distance of about 521 km is likely to be finalized soon. Congress State President Govind Singh Dotasara and ministers have reviewed the entire route. The yatra will remain in Rajasthan for 18 days.
Maken stopped work, so Venugopal got the jobAfter Ajay Maken's offer to resign from the post of state in-charge, he has stopped looking after the work of Rajasthan. A parallel meeting was held on September 25 by boycotting the Legislature Party meeting. If action was not taken against the leaders responsible for this, Maken had expressed displeasure. He wrote a letter to the Congress President on 8 November offering his resignation.
Since then, Maken has stopped the work of Rajasthan in-charge. At present, no one has been given the responsibility of in-charge before the Bharat Jodo Yatra. That's why now KC Venugopal has been given the responsibility instead of in-charge. Ajay Maken is definitely a member of the steering committee formed after Kharge became the president, but he has stopped working as Rajasthan in-charge.
There was a tussle in the meeting, Gehlot called him a traitor in the interviewIn the meeting of Bharat Jodo Yatra held in the Congress War Room on November 23, the tussle between Gehlot and Pilot was clearly visible. The video of both of them staring at each other became very popular. Sachin Pilot had left just half an hour after Gehlot's arrival in this meeting. Just a day before coming to this meeting, Gehlot had given an interview in Pali, in which he had called Pilot a traitor. The interview was aired the very next day of this meeting, on which the controversy is still going on.
