As the Rajasthan Political crisis continues to rock the Congress Government, Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot held a cabinet meeting today in Jaipur, a day after Governor Kalraj Mishra sent back his request, with queries, for an assembly session. The meeting went on for over two hours. The Congress Legislature Party has sent a memorandum to President Ram Nath Kovind, seeking his intervention to facilitate an assembly session in the state. They claimed in the memorandum to President Kovind that the horse-trading of MLAs was on in Rajasthan to topple an elected government and that Governors of many states are "defying" the Constitution at the behest of the ruling party at the Centre without worrying about the dignity of their posts.
