After a month of turmoil Cong takes bold steps in re #RajasthanPolitics. @ajaymaken is made Raj in-charge removing Avinash Pande (as Pilot wanted). He along with @kcvenugopalmp @ahmedpatel form committee to hear Pilot's grievances. It is clear that Raj is Cong's top priority.
It is clear that @SachinPilot's rebellion has not been taken lightly even though for the time being it seems he lost face and is defeated. He was always known to be one of @RahulGandhi's fav, now it is clear his actions have had an impact, hopefully for the better.
The way #RajasthanPoliticalCrisis unfolded, how it has been navigated and the current outcome marks a show of master political maneuvering far from the common perception that Cong is directionless and in tatters. All is not lost with Cong after all.

Live Thread 《PLEA BY RAJASTHAN SPEAKER》

Justice Arun Mishra led bench to hear plea by Speaker of the Rajasthan Assembly, CP Joshi against Rahasthan HC "directing" him to defer disqualification proceedings against Sachin Pilot & team till July 24

#SupremeCourt
High Court, in its order had effectively restrained the Speaker from proceeding against Pilot & team & this "direction" of the High Court is in teeth of the 10th Schedule and legal principle laid down in the Kihoto Hollohan case, Joshi's plea has contended

@SachinPilot
Assailing this order, the Speaker has averred that it is a well settled legal principle laid down by a Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court in Kihoto Hollohan case that the Courts cannot interfere in the Tenth Schedule proceedings

Mukul Rohatgi for @SachinPilot : The judgement be read according to the facts. No judgement can be read in vacuum or without the facts. The Kihoto judgement be read according to facts. #RajasthanPolitics #RajasthanPoliticalCrisis #SachinPilot #Congress
Rohatgi Reading Kihoto judgement: the entire emphasis was on defection from one party to other party. When you quote Aaya Ram Gaya Ram, you cross the floor! #SachinPilot
Rohatgi: Powers of HC under 226 are incapable of being curtailed by the constitution or anything else. Its part of the Basic Structure.

Its wider than even article 32. Therefore what the Speaker has argued that Court cannot act, is wrong. #RajasthanPolitics #SachinPilot
