Sachin Pilot Unmoved, Skips Second Congress Meet

Rebel Sachin Pilot has skipped the second meeting today of Rajasthan MLAs after the Congress invited him last night to "come and sort out the dispute". The seething Deputy Chief Minister has rejected the olive branch offered by his party amid reports that he is "actively talking to" the BJP. Sachin Pilot's camp released a video last night showing at least 16 MLAs, hours after Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot flaunted MLAs at a meeting at his home in Jaipur. The Congress leadership waited for the Chief Minister's show of strength before trying to placate Sachin Pilot, but has so far drawn a blank.
