BJP making attempts to poach MLAs, destabilise Rajasthan govt: Congress

Earlier in the day, Rajasthan government's chief whip Mahesh Joshi said attempts are being made to destabilise the state government

The Congress on Wednesday charged the BJP with attempts to destabilise the Rajasthan government even as party MLAs were taken to a luxury resort in Jaipur for a meeting called by Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot. The development has taken place ahead of the June 19 elections to three Rajya Sabha seats in the state.

Congress national spokesperson Randeep Surjewala, who arrived in Jaipur to attend the meeting of the Congress MLAs and Independent legislators, said repeated assassination of public mandate has become the BJP's character.

"The BJP's conspiracy in Rajasthan will not succeed. The people of Rajasthan are brave and fearless.
