JAISALMER: Transport minister
Pratap Singh Khachariyawas
on Wednesday said the high command will decide on
Sachin Pilot’s future in the state unit. However, his honour will remain intact in the Congress party, he added.
On enforcement directorate notice to him,
Khachariyawas
said that the central government is playing vendetta politics. His 80-year-old ill father has been served notice. He said he will reply to the ED notice.
He said the ED can serve notices, but it has no standing as he does not work with any company and he is not a director in any business establishment. He has got nothing to with anybody.
“The Centre has power and can send notices through ED, send someone to jail and take action on anybody. They can also send the income tax, but the way it is playing vendetta politics, it is wrong,” the transport minister said. ED sent notices to former CM Bhairon Singh Shekhawat’s brother Lakshman Singh.
With regard to the ruckus in the MLAs’ meeting at Suryagarh hotel on Tuesday night, Khachariyawas said the resentment of MLAs is valid. The legislature party meeting is held so that anybody has can their mind out. As far as taking back Pilot as PCC chief and deputy CM, he said the high command will decide on the issue. However, AICC has not given any statement in this regard. “We will accept what the high command decides and will work together,” he added.
