KOTA: Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Friday said it was reasonable to have ambition in politics but it was the approach that made the difference.
राजस्थान में सरकार जो फैसले कर रही है इस बार एक के बाद एक वो सबके ज़ेहन में हैं और मैं दावा कर सकता हूं कि देश के कई राज्यों में ऐसे फैसले नहीं हुए हैं क्योंकि मैं देखता हूं, गुजरात में तो मैं काम कर रहा हूं वहां भी देखता हूं, वहां तो कुछ भी नहीं हुआ,वहां के हालात बड़े गंभीर हैं। pic.twitter.com/DktsmReQQy

His remark comes two days after his former deputy Sachin Pilot raised eyebrows over Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “praise” for Gehlot and also nudged the Congress to end the “state of indecision” over the post of chief minister.
अभी मानगढ़ में प्रधानमंत्री जी से मैंने मांग की है चिरंजीवी योजना के लिए, मैंने कहा कि आप उसको एग्जामिन करवाओ, सोशल सिक्योरिटी है ये, राइट टू हैल्थ है… 10 लाख के बीमा के अलावा भी अगर हार्ट ट्रांसप्लांट है, किडनी ट्रांसप्लांट है, या लिवर ट्रांसप्लांट है, वो पैसा भी सरकार देगी। pic.twitter.com/fQZO3YVfQr

When asked about the internal challenges in the party, Gehlot told reporters in Baran without naming anyone, “Everyone has a little bit of ambition in politics and it is reasonable that one should have ambition. It is the approach that makes some difference.”
Refuting any suggestions of internal conflict in the ruling party, Gehlot said he did not want to speak further on the matter and said it was important to win the next elections to the Rajasthan Assembly in the interest of the state and the country.
He said the next elections would be fought on the agenda of good governance, works and schemes of the government.
On Wednesday, Pilot pushed for action against leaders of the Ashok Gehlot camp involved in a show of strength on the chief minister’s behalf, boycotting a Congress Legislature Party meeting in September, and said the time had come for the Congress to end the state of political indecision.
