The political crisis in Rajasthan over who will be the next Chief Minister is likely to drag on, with MLAs loyal to Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot unavailable for a meeting with Congress central leaders immediately. The MLAs, however, are unavailable. Senior legislator Pratap Singh Khachariyawas said the MLAs are open to meeting the central leaders, but had to head home for Navratri, which started today. Congress sources confirmed that Mr Kharge and Mr Gehlot are returning to Delhi.
