'Rajesh Pilot had once challenged this family': PM Modi accuses Congress of victimising Sachin Pilot

Prime Minister Narendra Modi accused the Congress party of punishing Sachin Pilot, the former deputy chief minister of Rajasthan, because his father had revolted against the party in 1996. Modi claimed that the Congress had a history of suppressing those who spoke out against the party's wrongdoing. He highlighted the differences between Pilot and Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, and criticized the Congress for pretending to reconcile ahead of the state's assembly elections. Pilot has expressed his willingness to let bygones be bygones and move forward.
