Jaipur: The Rajasthan political turmoil has left many speculating over the next move of young leader Sachin Pilot, who has been sacked by the Congress party from the post of Deputy Chief Minister and PCC Chief, after he kicked off a rebellion.
However, now putting to rest the major speculation of him joining the BJP, Pilot has said that he is still a Congressman!
“I am not joining the BJP. I would like to make it clear that I have no plans to join the BJP. Attempts to link me to the BJP are to malign me in the eyes of the Congress high-command,” Sachin Pilot told NDTV, pointing out that he had worked hard to defeat the BJP.
He has also said that he has not yet decided on the future course of action.
Trouble started brewing for the Congress in Rajasthan, when the 42-year-old Congress leader launched a revolt on Sunday, after he was asked to appear for questioning in an investigation stared by the Chief Minister into alleged attempts to dislodge the Congress government.
