Congress Pokes Ashok Gehlot To Include Sachin Pilot Loyalists In Ministry

Sources said the Congress high command is keen that the reshuffle take place immediately and supporters of Mr Pilot be accommodated.

Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot met the party's central leaders in Delhi today to discuss the long pending issue of accommodating supporters of Sachin Pilot into the state cabinet. Sources said the Congress high command is keen that the reshuffle take place immediately and supporters of Mr Pilot be accommodated.

Sources said today's discussion involved cabinet reshuffle and appointments in the state corporations, which Mr Gehlot has been delaying for over a year.

Accommodating Mr Pilot's supporters in the cabinet was seen as part of the peace formula worked out by Priyanka Gandhi Vadra last year when the Pilot faction was on the warpath.

The rebellion, which festered for a month, had brought the Ashok Gehlot government on verge of collapse.
