Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has said he has spoken to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to apprise him of the political situation in the state and he has promised him to "get the matter seen."
Mr Gehlot said he also wrote to the prime minister a few days back over the issue, even as the Congress Legislature Party sent a memorandum to President Ram Nath Kovind, seeking his intervention to facilitate an assembly session in the state.
Meanwhile, the Rajasthan Governor has sent back Ashok Gehlot's request for an assembly session from Friday with questions, asserting, however, that he was "in principle" not against the move. Governor Kalraj Mishra has questioned whether MLAs can be given three weeks' notice and how physical distancing can be maintained.
