Rajasthan’s former Deputy CM Sachin Pilot resumes padyatra on Day 4 against graft

Rajasthan’s former Deputy Chief Minister Sachin Pilot’s 125-km Ajmer-Jaipur ‘Jan Sangharsh Yatra’ enters the fourth Day. Pilot’s foot march against corruption and government recruitment exam paper leaks resumed from Dudu town in Rajasthan’s Jaipur district on Saturday. Pilot started his 125-km Ajmer-Jaipur ‘Jan Sangharsh Yatra’ on Thursday, May 11 and he is being accompanied by a large number of supporters. The five-day ‘yatra’ mounts pressure on the Congress leadership and Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, months ahead of the Assembly elections slated for later this year with the party also facing anti-incumbency, apart from infighting in the state unit. The march comes days after Gehlot accused the MLAs involved in the 2020 revolt of taking money from the BJP. Pilot and 18 other Congress MLAs had then sought a leadership change in Rajasthan.
