A Rajasthan minister has been sacked hours after raising questions in the Assembly on his own government’s success in controlling crimes against women, even as his colleagues in the Congress were raising the Manipur violence issue.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A Raj Bhawan statement said Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot had recommended the dismissal of Minister of State Rajendra Singh Gudha from the Council of Ministers this evening and Governor Kalraj Mishra has accepted the recommendation with immediate effect.<\/p>\n
Mr Gudha was the Minister of State for Sainik Kalyan (Independent Charge), Home Guard and Civil Defence, Rural Development and Panchayati Raj.<\/p>\n
During a discussion on the Rajasthan Minimum Income Guarantee Bill 2023 in the state Assembly, Congress MLAs raised the issue of the violence in Manipur. Mr Gudha, however, called for introspection from his own government.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“The truth is that we have failed to provide security to women. The way atrocities against women have gone up in Rajasthan, we should introspect instead of raising the issue of Manipur,” Mr Gudha said in the Assembly.<\/p>\n
Leader of the Opposition Rajendra Rathore of the BJP used Mr Gudha’s comments to attack the state government. \u201cAs per Article 164(2) of the Constitution, the government works on the basis of collective responsibility. The Constitution states that when one minister speaks, it means the entire government is speaking. The minister has exposed the government. I congratulate him, but it is a shameful thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
