Congress's Rahul Gandhi on Sunday took to social media to slam the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) over the ongoing events in Rajasthan. Rahul tweeted a video in which he urged the citizens to "protect the Constitution and democracy by denying BJP's conspiracy of fraud".

In order to mobilise people against the BJP, the Congress party has planned a nationwide protest in front of the Raj Bhawans across India to corner the central government over the political crisis in Rajasthan.

Taking part in #SpeakUpForIndia online campaign, Gandhi wrote (Roughly translated from Hindi), "The democracy of India will run with the voice of the people on the basis of the constitution. The people of this country will protect democracy and the Constitution by denying BJP's conspiracy of fraud #SpeakUpForDemocracy."

भारत का लोकतंत्र संविधान के आधार पर जनता की आवाज़ से चलेगा।

भाजपा के छल-कपट के षड्यंत्र को नकारकर देश की जनता लोकतंत्र और संविधान की रक्षा करेगी।#SpeakUpForDemocracy — Rahul Gandhi (@RahulGandhi) July 26, 2020

The Ashok Gehlot-led Congress government in Rajasthan has been in major crisis ever since his deputy Sachin Pilot  -- who has been removed from his post in the government and Congress party -- turned rebel with som MLA supporting him.

The Gehlot government wants to hold the assembly session to prove the majority but their request to hold an urgent assembly session was turned down by state governor Kalraj Mishra.

CM Gehlot on Sunday sent a fresh proposal to Mishra, requesting him to call a special Assembly session on July 31 but without mentioning a floor test.

According to the reports, the proposed date is July 31 and the agency mentioned in the proposal is Coronavirus pandemic, not the 'floor test'.

Gehlot had earlier attacked Kalraj Mishra and said that the Governor is under pressure from the Centre.

CM Gehlot also warned the governor and said," If the call for assembly session is not issued the government is not responsible for any kind of mass protests outside the Raj Bhavan."
