In a meeting of the Congress Legislature Party, Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot indicated that he will file his nomination for the post of national president of the party.
Addressing the meeting, Rajasthan CM said, “I will try to convince Rahul Gandhi for the last time, if he does not agree, then I will trouble you and follow the order of the high command.”
Soon after his announcement, many MLAs were seen requesting him to stay here.
Answering them, Gehlot said, “Whatever I become, but I will not stay away from you, I will serve Rajasthan till my last breath.”
In fact, he also hinted that he shall continue as CM as he asked MLAs to start working for the Budget.
Earlier, a dinner of all MLAs was held at the CM House in honour of Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar. The Congress Legislature Party meeting was held after dinner.
