Senior Congress leader and former Rajasthan deputy chief minister Sachin Pilot cuts a cake to celebrate his 45th birthday, outside his residence in Jaipur, Tuesday, Sept. 6, 2022. (Express Photo by Rohit Jain Paras)Supporters of former Rajasthan deputy chief minister Sachin Pilot on Tuesday thronged his Civil Lines residence in Jaipur to celebrate his birthday.
The event, seen as a show of strength amid a continuing tussle between Pilot and Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot for supremacy in the party’s state unit, saw some 21 MLAs, or almost every sixth MLA of the ruling party or supporting the state government in Rajasthan, turning up to extend their birthday wishes to Pilot.
While Pilot turns 45 on Wednesday, he will be joining the party’s ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’ which begins from Kanyakumari on Wednesday, hence the celebrations were held in Jaipur till Tuesday afternoon, after which Pilot left for Kanyakumari.
The rush of supporters led to a traffic bottleneck in the area, which also houses the CM residence, Raj Bhawan and bungalows of ministers, etc.
Clad in traditional outfits, people from the tribal belt and other regions, including his Assembly constituency Tonk, came with sweets and garlands to greet Pilot. Many of them were seen dancing to the beat of drums.
