Now, Ashok Gehlot blames Sachin Pilot for his son's defeat. Days after Congress suffered a complete rout in the Lok Sabha elections in Rajasthan, the infighting within the party’s state unit intensified further on Monday when chief minister Ashok Gehlot insisted that Pradesh Congress Committee chief and his deputy in the government, Sachin Pilot, take responsibility for his son, Vaibhav Gehlot’s, defeat from his stronghold, Jodhpur. Pilot expressed surprise at Gehlot’s statement, but refused to further comment.
