Pilot expresses solidarity with Rahul Gandhi, says pressure on people who expose those in power
Congress leader Sachin Pilot on Wednesday targeted the Narendra Modi-led government at the Centre, saying there is a «conspiracy» to put pressure on people who advocate democracy and expose those in power. The former Rajasthan deputy chief minister took part in a silent protest organised by the Congress to express solidarity with Rahul Gandhi, who has been disqualified from Parliament after his conviction in a defamation case. The Congress on Wednesday held similar protests at several places in the country, days after the Gujarat High Court refused to stay the conviction. On the sidelines of the Jaipur protest, Pilot claimed investigative agencies are being misused by the Centre and there is an environment of hatred and confrontation in the country. He said party leader Rahul Gandhi talks about affection, non-violence and strengthening of democracy, but is still being targeted.
