New Delhi / Jaipur Amid the ongoing political upheaval in Rajasthan, everyone’s eyes are on Sachin Pilot. Meanwhile, breaking the silence on the political path ahead, he has said that he is not joining the BJP. He has said this to news agency ANI. Significantly, senior BJP leaders have invited him to join the party, but close people say that Pilot is preparing to form his own front. Earlier, on Tuesday, the Congress, taking a major action, removed Pilot as the Deputy Chief Minister and the President of the State Congress Committee, but was not dropped from the party. That means they have to do the formalities of leaving the party themselves.
Let us know that even though the BJP leaders have spoken about welcoming them, the BJP will also blow every step in this matter. The party already has many strong leaders in Rajasthan. In such a situation, no decision can be taken in haste. In view of this, the BJP has called a meeting in Rajasthan today. It will also include former Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje.
