Jaipur : Before Gandhi Jayanti, former CM Ashok Gehlot has again made a political blast in Rajasthan. A post on Ashok Gehlot’s social media has created a stir in the political corridors. He has posted on his ex handle and once again warned the Bhajanlal government about the Gandhi Vatika Museum in Jaipur. Ashok Gehlot has accused the government of dogmatism regarding the museum and has warned of a sit-in.
Former CM Ashok Gehlot wrote on his X handle that, “Despite being inaugurated about a year ago, the BJP government has not opened the Gandhi Vatika Museum located in Central Park, Jaipur for the general public. This world-class museum has been built at a cost of about Rs 85 crore. I personally and also by writing a letter, requested Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma to start this museum to spread Gandhiji’s message of truth and non-violence among the public.”
He further said, “To protest against this dogmatism of the government and to open the Gandhi Vatika Museum to the general public, I and all the Gandhians will sit on a dharna on 28 September, Saturday, from 11 am to 4 pm at the Gandhi Vatika Museum located at Gate No. 5 of Central Park.” Let us tell you that Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge, Rahul Gandhi and the then Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot inaugurated the ‘Gandhi Vatika’ built in Jaipur’s Central Park on 23 September last year. To introduce the new generation to the thoughts of Mahatma Gandhi, the subject matter of this Gandhi Vatika has been prepared under the guidance of a committee of Gandhian thinkers at a cost of Rs 85 crore.
