New Delhi: Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, who has a thin lead in the assembly after a revolt by his sacked deputy Sachin Pilot, will "be taught a lesson", warned Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) leader Mayawati today, declaring she would go all the way to the Supreme Court to fight six MLAs of her party joining the Congress last year.
Ashok Gehlot is just one ahead of the majority mark of 101 in the 200-member Rajasthan assembly. Six MLAs who merged the Rajasthan BSP into the Congress in September helped him secure his tally.
BJP leader Madan Dilawar has petitioned the Rajasthan High Court against the merger; he dropped an earlier case and filed a fresh petition today. The BSP has approached the court and asked to be made a part of the same petition.
"BSP could have gone to the court earlier too but we were looking for a time to teach the Congress party and Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot a lesson. Now we have decided to go to court. We will not let this matter alone. We will go even to the Supreme Court," Mayawati said today.
