This comes amid the ongoing Rajasthan political crisis for Congress after the 42-year-old leader declared an open rebellion against his arch-rival and boss Ashok Gehlot. Pilot, who is currently camping in New Delhi, claims the Ashok Gehlot-led Rajasthan government is in minority as over 30 Congress MLAs have "pledged support" to him.
'Come back, let's work this out together'
Senior Congress leader Randeep Surjewala said that Congress has kept its doors open for Sachin Pilot and his MLAs. While addressing the media in Jaipur, Surjewala said, "Pilot should tell us when he will come to attend the CLP (Congress Legislature Party) meeting. We have kept our doors open for Pilot and his MLAs. Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi are keen to resolve the crisis."
"In the last 48 hours, we have spoken to Pilot many times. They should put forward their views in front of us," Surjewala said.
"We should not give BJP a chance to form the government," he said adding that Pilot should come back to his home as he is a family member of the Congress.
"If he is angry for any reason, we will convince him," Surjewala further added.
