Meanwhile, following the announcement of a day-long fast by former deputy chief minister Sachin Pilot to demand action from Chief Minister Gehlot regarding alleged corruption during the BJP's rule in the state, the party made the assertion.
The statement came after Pilot fired a fresh salvo at his bete noire, putting pressure on the central leadership to solve problems before the end-of-year elections.
"The Gehlot government did not take any action against corruption under the previous Vasundhara Raje government." We had promised an investigation into the Rs 45,000 crore mines scam when we were in opposition,'' Pilot said at a press conference at his Jaipur home, announcing his hunger strike on Tuesday.
On Thursday, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge addressed a joint press conference of opposition leaders at the Constitution Club and accused the Modi administration of not upholding democratic principles and of disrupting Parliament to deflect attention from the opposition's demand for an investigation into the Adani scandal by a joint parliamentary committee (JPC).
