Rajasthan Congress Screening Committee President Gaurav Gogoi, along with other party leaders, met in Jaipur ahead of the state assembly elections on Monday. The meeting was also attended by State Unit President Govind Singh Dotasara and co-incharge Amrita Dhawan.
Pratap Singh Khachariyawas, Mamta Bhupesh, Tikaram Julie, Govindram Meghwal, Ramesh Meena, and Murari Lal Meena are cabinet ministers.
While attending the meeting, cabinet minister Pratap Singh Khachariawas said “The Congress party runs on the voice of the public, keeping in mind what the common man thinks, what the public representative should be in his eyes, the Congress gives tickets keeping all these things in mind.
‘Today BJP leaders abuse Congress everyday and the public is abusing BJP because the gas cylinder which Gehlot government is providing in Rajasthan for ₹ 500, the central government is charging ₹ 1100 to ₹ 1200 for it.”
Rajasthan will vote later this year, with the BJP and the ruling Congress locked in a straight fight.
Women and Child Development Minister Mamta Bhupesh said “The chairman of the screening committee has come here and I think this will give more strength to the election process.
“Along with the discussion about what is happening, the Government’s Vision 2030 and the issues with which it should go among the public and serve the public, all these issues will be discussed. There is an atmosphere in favour of Congress in Rajasthan, therefore a large number of candidates are coming forward in every assembly constituency.”
