The second state slipped from Congress's hand in 11 months
In early 2020, Congress was in power in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Punjab, Puducherry, and Maharashtra. Madhya Pradesh first came out of its hands last year, when Jyotiraditya Scindia's pro-legislators rebelled against Kamal Nath. Kamal Nath had to resign in March 2020. Now the Congress has received another blow in Puducherry.
Now the Congress government is in Rajasthan, Punjab, Chhattisgarh, and Maharashtra. In Maharashtra, it is in alliance with Shiv Sena-NCP. In Rajasthan, Punjab, and Chhattisgarh, it is running the government on its own. Among them, the case of Rajasthan is delicate, where Sachin Pilot, who was deputy CM in July-August 2020, has rebelled against CM Ashok Gehlot. Gehlot has passed the floor test once, but he will have to prove his majority again in the event of a rebellion.
