Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Friday sacked Rajendra Singh Gudha as minister of state over questioning the Congress-led government over recent incidents of crimes against women in the state. Governor Kalraj Mishra has accepted with immediate effect the recommendation of Gehlot to sack Gudha, said Raj Bhawan.
This came hours after Congress leader Gudha had criticised his own government over recent incidents of crimes against women in Rajasthan.
News agency YEARS quoted Gudha as saying in the assembly, “It is true and should be accepted that we have failed in women’s safety. Instead of Manipur, we should look within ourselves that atrocities on women have increased in Rajasthan.”
