CM Ashok Gehlot tells MLAs at the Congress Legislature Party meeting that they will have to stay at Hotel Fairmont in Jaipur till 14th August (start of the assembly session). Ministers can visit Secretariat to complete their work.

A meeting of the Rajasthan Congress Legislature Party began at a hotel on the outskirts of Jaipur where party legislators and supporters are holed up, sources said. It was to start around 10 am but got delayed by three hours as the party's core group chalked out its strategy ahead of the CLP meeting, Congress sources said.

The meeting was called after Rajasthan Governor Kalraj Mishra gave his consent to a proposal by the Ashok Gehlot Cabinet to call an assembly session from August 14.

The governor had turned down three earlier proposals, saying if the government wanted the assembly summoned at a short notice it should state that it planned to hold a vote of confidence. Or, it should give 21 days' notice to call and assembly session, Mishra had said.
