"BJP governments' attention were less on governance as they were busy in giving clean chit to each others," Pilot said here at the sidelines of the merger ceremony of BSP workers in Congress party.
Pilot also attacked the state government over alleged rising incidents of crime against Dalits and women in Rajsathan.
BJP's all announcements and speeches were restricted up to papers, it should safeguard interests of women, Dalit and weaker section of the society, he said.
"It is a shameful act in society...The state government should take stern action now to contain such crime and RTI activists work in secured environment," he said.
On BSP workers' merger he said, it was a beginning with the workers from ten districts in the state joining the Congress, Pilot said adding more will join the party later.
Asked about Congress MP Shashi Tharoor's statement allegedly in favour of Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje on Lalit-gate and Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his Yoga and Clean India mission, Pilot categorically said, "Tharoor has not said any thing adverse to the party. Our policies are same and very clear on every matter".
