The Rajasthan government, severely congested by a series of recent controversies, is being revamped. 16 cabinet ministers and 11 junior ministers resigned this afternoon, allowing Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot to regroup. His brief - made amply clear by the Congress leadership in Delhi - is to win back Rajasthan by presenting a cleaner face.
