#RajasthanPoliticalCrisis | Mallikarjun Kharge & I came here as AICC observers to hold a meeting in accordance with CM's convenience at the latter's residence. We were continuously telling the MLAs who didn't come to come & talk one-to-one: AICC observer Ajay Maken

Cong MLAs Pratap Khachariyawas, S Dhariwal & CP Joshi met us, kept 3 demands. One was to announce the implementation of resolution of handing over the responsibility (to appoint CM) to Congress President after Oct 19; we said it'll be a conflict of interest: AICC observer A Maken

If CM Ashok Gehlot becomes Congress chief after Oct 19,he can empower himself over his own resolution. 2nd condition- they wanted to come in groups when we said that we shall talk to everyone individually;we made it clear that this isn't how it works,but they didn't accept: Maken

Third condition was that the CM should be from the 102 MLAs who are loyal to CM Ashok Gehlot, not Sachin Pilot or his group. We said that their exact sentiments will be conveyed to Cong chief, who will take the decision after talking to CM Ashok Gehlot & everyone else: Ajay Maken

They (Cong MLAs) insisted that the resolution be in line with 3 conditions, to which we said that never in the history of Congress has any resolution been passed with strings attached to it & which is conditional. There should be no conflict of interest: AICC observer Ajay Maken

We waited for more MLAs to come, but they didn't. Mallikarjun Kharge & I are going to Delhi to submit our report to Cong chief. No one has any idea about the number & identities of the MLAs who resigned or not. We are hopeful to sit & talk through this to find a solution: A Maken

Correction: Cong MLAs Pratap Khachariyawas, S Dhariwal & Mahesh* Joshi met us, kept 3 demands: AICC observer A Maken
