Ours not a fascist party, no problem with differing views but shouldn’t cause major damage: Rahul on Gehlot-Pilot tussle

Punjab Junction Weekly Newspaper / 16 December 2022

Jaipur,

Amid the ongoing power tussle between Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and his bete noire Sachin Pilot, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday invoked internal democracy in the party and said differences in views was not an issue until it causes major damage.

With Gehlot sitting beside him at a press conference here, Gandhi was asked a host of questions, including on three Gehlot loyalists getting a show cause notice over defiance against a legislature party meeting in September.

Responding to a question on why action had not been taken on the three Gehlot loyalists, Gandhi said, “There is no indecision…these things happen. There is no major problem in our party, there is no confusion.” Asked about the Gehlot-Pilot feud, he said his view is that not only in Rajasthan but in other states as well, there is a need to make the common party worker and the lower level leader participate and be listened to.
