Amid the ongoing political campaign for upcoming Rajasthan polls, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was seen together with CM Ashok Gehlot and Sachin Pilot in Jaipur.
This is the Congress's latest show of unity in the run-up to the election to remain in power in Rajasthan.
In a video shared by news agency ANI, Gandhi was seen together with Chief Minister Gehlot, and his arch-rival Pilot.
The three leaders were seen asking each other to walk in the front.
Rajasthan Congress president Govind Singh Dotasra was also seen.
After several moments of "pehle aap, pehle aap", the leaders resumed walking.
As mediapersons kept calling out to the Congress leaders, Gandhi approached them and said, "We are not only seen together but we are also united. We will be together and Congress will sweep the elections here and win".
This comes as a significant obstacle for the party in the run-up to the election is the ongoing internal strife between factions led by Gehlot and Pilot, a discord that nearly destabilised the state government two years ago.
Congress is now striving to present a cohesive and unified image to minimise the impact of these internal issues on their electoral performance.
