BJP disapproves charges against Raje, Cong warns of agitation

Sharpening attack on BJP for not taking action against Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje facing allegations of "helping former IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi", Congress today said the former was finding it difficult to garner courage in initiative action against the CM.
Raje, who is yet to make a public statement on the controversy, attended a party meeting with senior leaders including National General Secretary Arun Singh and joint general secretary Saudan Singh at the party's state headquarters but denied talking to the media.
While Congress leaders reiterated their demanded resignation of Raje on moral, ethical and legal grounds, BJP defended her and her son.

The Opposition Congress took out a mass protest rally from Udyog maidan to civil lines railway crossing to corner Raje.
PCC President Sachin Pilot, former CM Ashok Gehlot and other leaders led the protest march and addressed the party workers near the civil lines railway crossing.
After the protest peacefully concluded, the CM headed to the BJP office where the senior party leaders were holding the meeting to review party's Mahasampark Abhiyan.

She attended the meeting and also held talks with the leaders.
After the meeting, Singh said that the allegations against Raje and her son were not true. He said that he has examined the papers related with transactions between the companies of Raje's son Dushyant Singh and Lalit Modi and everything was correct.

"I have seen the documents of transactions between the companies and there is nothing illegal. Congress has dearth of issues, so such baseless allegations are leveled against the BJP leaders," Sing told reporters after the meeting in the party office.
BJP state president Ashok Parnami said that the party has already clarified its stand on the allegations against Raje.
"The allegations are baseless," he said.
Both the senior BJP leaders- Arun Singh and Saudan Singh- are in the city to review party's Mahasampark Abhiyan.
Raje left the party office without talking to the media.
Congress, on the other hand, demanded immediate resignation of Raje saying this would pave way for a fair probe.

"Despite the huge controversy, PM is silent on the matter. This shows that the party's leadership is not able to take action against Raje but we will continue our protest till she resigns," Pilot said in the protest.
He said that BJP's double standard has been exposed.
Former CM Ashok Gehlot said that the agitation would continue till she resigns.
