Jaipur (Rajasthan) [India], October 27 : Rajasthan Leader of Opposition (LoP) Rajendra Rathore on Friday hit out at the state government led by Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot ahead of the announcement of 'guarantees' by the latter in wake of the state assembly polls.
Rathore said, "Guarantee hai Ashok Gehlot ki vidai ki".
"What about those guarantees? Ab guarantee hai Ashok Gehlot ki vidai ki. The government has pushed the state into an economic crisis. What about their earlier guarantees? Now that their regime has ended, what is the point of these guarantees? The public is not going to believe them", LoP Rathore said while speaking to ANI in Rajasthan's Jaipur.
Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot, earlier today, announced that he would make 'special announcements' for the people of the state today, ahead of the Rajasthan assembly polls, which are scheduled to be held on November 25.
Taking to 'X', CM Gehlot wrote, "Today at 12:30 pm, I will guarantee a better future for every person of Rajasthan by making some special announcements".
Speaking on the Enforcement Directorate raids in Rajasthan, Rajendra Rathore said, "If there is nothing wrong, why should they be afraid? Let everything get clear".
Rajasthan witnessed a political storm with the ED raids at the residence of state Congress Chief, Govind Singh Dotasara, in connection with the Senior Teacher 2nd Grade Competitive Examination, 2022 Paper Leak case.
Several of the Congress leaders criticised the BJP led central government alleging the "misuse" of the central probe agencies by the latter.
"As elections are around the corner, ED, CBI, IT etc. become the real 'Panna Pramukh' of BJP. Seeing its certain defeat in Rajasthan, the Bharatiya Janata Party made its last move! After Chhattisgarh, ED has also started action against Congress leaders entering the assembly election campaign in Rajasthan", Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge wrote in a post on 'X'.
"The dictatorship of the Modi government is fatal for democracy. We will continue to fight against the misuse of agencies, the public will give a befitting reply to the BJP', he added.
The ED also summoned Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot's son and Congress leader, Vaibhav Gehlot in connection with the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) case.
