Jaipur, Jun 16 (PTI) Former Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot alleged on Tuesday that the administration in Kota is removing hoardings related to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s proposed interactive programme with students.
Gehlot claimed that while the administration during the previous Congress government in the desert state cooperated when hoardings of programmes organised by the BJP were installed, the current regime of the saffron party is removing publicity material related to Gandhi’s event.
He claimed that the action reflects the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) nervousness over the programme and termed it a political conspiracy.
“Coaching institutes have been pressured and students are being discouraged from attending the event,” Gehlot said.
He said the removal of hoardings would not suppress the voice of students and claimed that a large number of them are expected to participate in the programme scheduled to be held in Kota on Wednesday.
Gandhi is scheduled to interact with students in Kota as part of a Congress campaign focussed on issues related to competitive examinations, including the alleged NEET paper leak. PTI SDA RC
