Sachin Pilot had, on Sunday, declared open rebellion against the Congress government in Rajasthan. He had claimed that the Ashok Gehlot government is in minority now as over 30 Congress MLAs are supporting him.
The Congress held two legislative party meets following this development.
In the Congress Legislative Party meet held today, a resolution was passed to sack Pilot and two other ministers – Vishvender Singh and Ramesh Meena.
Following this, Rajasthan Chief Minister met with state Governor Kalraj Mishra, who has accepted the proposal to remove Pilot and the two ministers.
