A complicated impasse seems to be on the hands of Rajasthan Congress.

Last year, the then deputy CM of Rajasthan Sachin Pilot and his supporters left to camp at an undisclosed location in Haryana to express their differences.

The action endangered the stability of the state government.

When the Congress high command intervened and promised action to Pilot, then he and his supporters returned. They were gone for about a month.

Pilot said that it has been ten months and none of the so-called swift actions by the committee to handle his grievances have been resolved. He expressed dissatisfaction that half of the term is over.

Pilot presented the case of his and his supporters efforts when he regretted that their wholehearted efforts were being devalued.

A national daily reported that the Congress high command is attempting to work out a cabinet reshuffle in Rajasthan. The same daily claimed that Pilot informed it that the high command has failed to deliver on the promises made to him and the other legislators.

It is pertinent to remind that in July 2020, Pilot along with his supporters left Jaipur to protest. He was removed from the post of Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president.

When the senior leadership intervened and set up a committee uner general secretary Ajay Maken, then Pilot and his supporters returned.

When the above quoted daily approached Maken regarding this, he clarified that it was not the right time to speak and disclosed that there were vacancies in the Rajasthan government and they may be filled soon.

However, in the case of the ruling party in Rajasthan a cabinet reshuffle is a non-trivial matter because there are two camps both of which have been separately promised positions within the state cabinet.

At the time of writing, out of 30 posts, 21 are filled and 9 are vacant. Of these nine vacancies, three were created when Pilot and his supporters were relieved of their posts owing to their mutiny.

Now, Pilot would want more of his supporters to find a place in the cabinet while Gehlot is backing those independents and former BSP legislators who saved his government during the floor test in August 2020.

A Congress leader was claimed to have informed the above-quoted daily that the promises by Pilot and by Gehlot are valid in their own right.

This leader was claimed to respect the prowess of both Pilot and Gehlot as the former consolidated Gujjar votes while the latter won the recent bypolls.

Sources informed that Sonia Gandhi is not in favour of replacing the CM Gehlot as he is counted among the senior leaders of the party.

It is pertinent to add that when Rahul Gandhi resigned, offer was presented to Rajastan CM Gehlot and Punjab CM Captain Amarinder Singh. Both of these leaders declined the offer even though they are loyalists to the party.

Further, the Gandhi family itself is divided on the Pilot and Gehlot issue.

Just as Congress suffered when Jyotiraditya Scindia joined BJP, so can be the case if Pilot chooses to do the same. Though, Pilot has said that he will not leave Congress.
