Gehlot attacks Shah for saying 'BJP will be invincible for next 50 years'

Such a statement reflects the BJP's fascist approach, Gehlot said.

The BJP does not believe in democracy. It wants to come to power once again to damage and change the Constitution and rule for 50 years, he told reporters here.

The former Rajasthan chief minister said Shah had inadvertently exposed the thinking of his party and its ideological parent, the RSS.

They, Gehlot alleged, want people to give them one more chance so that there is no requirement of the election process.

Addressing party workers here yesterday, Shah had said that the BJP will be invincible for the next 50 years from panchayat to Parliament if it wins the 2019 general elections.

Attacking the BJP, Gehlot said those who could not appoint a state party president of their choice owing to pressure from chief minister (Vasundhara Raje) had no right to comment on the Congress and its president Rahul Gandhi.

He demanded answers from Shah on the huge rise in the turnover of his son's company and the Rafale fighter jets deal.

The Congress leader exuded confidence that the party would face no hurdles in winning the upcoming Assembly election in Rajasthan.

He said the candidates who work honestly for the party will be given a chance to contest the elections.
