'What About Sachin Pilot?': Ex-Congress Leader Vs Harish Rawat On Revolt
NDTV
Reacting to Sunil Jakhar's comments, former Uttarakhand chief minister Harish Rawat said that the leader should have aired his grievances with the party president.
Sunil Jakhar, former chief of Congress' Punjab unit, quit the party today. Mr Jakhar's resignation comes at a time when the Congress leadership is meeting in Udaipur in a desperate attempt to put its house in order to take on the BJP.
During the Facebook live, Mr Jakhar took potshots at the Congress leadership and questioned why the people like Sachin Pilot, who had revolted against the party, were invited to the Shivir.
Sachin Pilot had last year revolted against the leadership of Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot demanding a top role for himself in the state government. Rejecting his demand, the Congress leadership had sacked him from all party posts.
Addressing Mr Gehlot, Mr Jakhar said, "Some people who went to Manesar, camped there for a month to revolt against your government... Should a notice not be sent to those people. Why was a notice not sent to these people"
