Jaipur: Congress staged a symbolic gherao of the Rajasthan Raj Bhavan here on Thursday and demonstrated against the alleged repressive policies of the Centre and the Enforcement Directorate’s questioning of party leader Rahul Gandhi in a money laundering case.
Congress state president Govind Singh Dotasra claimed that the ED’s case against Gandhi was false and part of the Centre’s conspiracy to divert people’s attention from real issues facing the country.
Congress leaders and workers staged a sit-in at the Civil Lines gate near the Raj Bhavan.
