Ganesh Ghoghra had sent his resignation as MLA to Ashok Gehlot on May 18 after a case was filed against him.
A day after Congress leader Ganesh Ghoghra sent his resignation as an MLA to Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, the CM on May 19 said the FIR was registered against the legislator as the rule of law should be upheld.
A case has been registered against Mr. Ghoghra for creating a ruckus in the State's Dungarpur district.
"Ganesh Ghoghra is our young colleague. He is an emotional person and keeps fighting for the people. We should appreciate him.
"He had gone for a public hearing but some other incident happened there. There is a rule of law, which should remain, and therefore the FIR was registered," Mr. Gehlot told reporters here.
Referring to his statements during incidents of communal tension in the State's Karauli and Jodhpur areas where he said the law will take its course for everyone, CM Gehlot said "peace cannot be established without this sentiment." The Chief Minister also praised Mr. Ghoghra, saying he keeps on meeting people and keeps raising their voices.
The Chief Minister hoped that the situation becomes normal and asserted that those who locked the SDM and other employees at Dungarpur were not 'Gandhiwadi.
