‘BJP, RSS don’t care about SC verdict’: CM Gehlot

Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot on Thursday lashed out at Bharatiya Janata Party and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh over the Supreme Court verdict on Maharashtra political crisis and said that they are not concerned about it.

Talking to the media persons, Gehlot said, “BJP and RSS are fascists, they don’t care what the Supreme Court verdict is.” This comes after, the SC on Thursday said that it could not disqualify the Eknath Shinde-led Maharashtra government and rejected the submission to reinstate Uddhav Thackeray as chief minister because the latter had chosen to resign instead of facing a test of strength in the assembly.

Hitting out at BJP, Gehlot alleged that the party toppled the government in Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Karnataka.

“They (BJP) toppled the government in MP, Maharashtra and Karnataka, our (Rajasthan) government survived otherwise, the same situation would have happened to us. People should save themselves from these people,” he said.

After the verdict of SC, Uddhav Thackeray said that people who had left his party had no right to ask him questions, and if Eknath Shinde has any morality he should submit his resignation.
