Sanjay Jha defends Pilot, gets suspended

Congress on Tuesday suspended Sanjay Jha from the party for

indiscipline

, a move that appeared triggered by his

defence

of Sachin Pilot. In wake of Rajasthan developments, he appeared on television channels criticising Congress.


After Pilot was removed as deputy CM and as state president, Jha tweeted, “For five years, Sachin Pilot gave his blood, tears, toil and sweat for Congress between 2013-18. Congress came back from a wretched 21 seats to 100. We just gave him a performance bonus. We are so meritocratic. We are so transparent.”
