BJP, Forced To "Rework Strategy" After Rajasthan Congress Truce, Meets
Vasundhara Raje and other top Rajasthan BJP leaders are meeting today to plan for the special session of the state assembly from tomorrow. This is the first meeting of BJP MLAs since the Congress rebel crisis broke out early July, pushing the Ashok Gehlot government to the verge of collapse until Sachin Pilot ended his rebellion on Monday. The BJP's attempts to consolidate its flock during the crisis proved to be non-starters because of Vasundhara Raje's silence and perceived refusal to "seize the moment" in an intense race for numbers.

As per news report of NDTV, a meeting called just after Mr Pilot's revolt had to be cancelled as Vasundhara Raje reportedly had no plans to attend. Sources say without the former Chief Minister's cooperation, the BJP could do very little. The revolt by Sachin Pilot and 18 other rebels had left Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot with 102 MLAs, barely one above the majority mark in the 200-member Rajasthan assembly.
