‘Thari-Mhari’ does not work in party culture, says Gehlot

Jaipur: Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Thursday said that those who create factions can never become successful and never be loyal to the party. The statement came on a day Pilot launched a 125-km-long Jan Sangharsh Yatra from Ajmer to Jaipur to raise the issue of corruption and the leaking of question papers for state government recruitment exams.

“In a democracy, those who take everyone along become successful and those who create factions can never become successful. Those indulging in factionalism (Thari-Mhari karte hai) can never become successful. They are never loyal to the party. Loyalty is very important. I have always tried in my life to take everyone along,” Gehlot said after inaugurating a statue of former Congress leader Pandit Nawal Kishore Sharma in Jaipur.

Referring to his past differences with UDH Minister Shanti Dhariwal, Gehlot said he had offered him a ministerial post when he became the CM in 1998. “I tried in life to take everyone along. Dhariwal ji was against me. I myself offered ministerial post to Dhariwal ji. Be it anyone’s man, I selected everyone at that time with a thought that he is a person from Congress, party high command and Sonia Gandhi,” Gehlot said.
