“The security is being withdrawn and cases are being registered. What the Central government has done to our leaders in eight years is visible to everyone”. Putting the Gehlot government in the dock, Pilot said, “When we were in the opposition, the Bharatiya Janata Party was at the helm and their leaders had accepted the allegations of corruption. What action have we taken against them so far?” “They are humiliating our leaders, prosecuting them, playing with their security. The time has come that we have to show people that we, too, know how to distinguish right from wrong,” Pilot added.
