Ready to welcome back Sachin Pilot, Rebel MLAs if Congress High Command forgives them: Ashok Gehlot
Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Saturday said he is open to welcoming back the Congress rebels led by Sachin Pilot.
Answering questions from reporters, Gehlot said if the Congress high command forgives the dissidents, he will embrace them.
Gehlot said he will do whatever the Congress leadership wants and gave the party the credit for becoming the Rajasthan chief minister thrice.
The chief minister was on his way back to Jaipur after an overnight stay at Jaisalmer's Suryagarh resort, where loyalist MLAs have been shifted ahead of the assembly session from August 14.
The Congress has accused the BJP of playing a major role in the rebellion by Sachin Pilot and 18 other Congress MLAs who are threatening his government.
