Rajasthan New CM । Ashok Gehlot | Sachin Pilot | राजस्थान के मुख्यमंत्री अशोक गहलोत (Ashok Gehlot) फिलहाल कांग्रेस के राष्ट्रीय अध्यक्ष बनने की रेस में बने हुए हैं। भले ही उनके करीबियों ने उन्हें दिल्ली जाने से रोकने की कोशिश की लेकिन अभी भी गांधी परिवार गहलोत को केंद्रीय राजनीति में लाना चाहते हैं। राजस्थान प्रकरण के बाद भले ही गहलोत की छवि को धक्का पहुंचा है लेकिन अहमद पटेल के निधन के बाद सोनिया गांधी के पास कोई दूसरा रणनीतिकार नहीं है जो मोदी-शाह की जोड़ी को टक्कर दे सके। गहलोत संगठन महासचिव रहते हुए अहमद पटेल को गुजरात में अमित शाह को पटखनी देकर जीताने से लेकर 2019 से पहले एमी, छत्तीसगढ़, राजस्थान, कर्नाटक में कांग्रेस की वापसी हुई थी। गहलोत की सबसे बड़ी सफलता गुजरात में कांग्रेस को मजबूती देते हुए बीजेपी को 100 सीट के अंदर लाने में कामयाबी हासिल करना था। ऐसे में पार्टी में दूर-दूर तक गहलोत के कद का कोई दूसरा नेता नहीं दिख रहा है जो शाह-मोदी को टक्कर देने की काबिलियत है।#rajasthancrisis #ashokgehlot #congresspresidentelection #soniagandhi #sachinpilo #rajasthancongress #indiatv
