New Delhi: Rajasthan Political Crisis Live Updates: Former Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje is expected to attend a crucial meeting of the BJP in Jaipur tomorrow, sources told NDTV. The BJP, which has been keeping a close watch on the disarray in the Congress camp following Sachin Pilot's rebellion, will decide on its way forward at this meeting, sources said.
An open revolt by Congress' number two leader in Rajasthan, Sachin Pilot, has led the party's government in the state into a crisis situation. After a day of uncertainities and hectic meetings, the party packed off at least 100 MLAs to a resort in the evening, a sign that the crisis is far from over.
Mr Pilot, who showed no signs of bowing down and even skipped a meet called by his party, was later sacked Rajasthan's Deputy Chief Minister earlier today.
