Gehlot was on his way to attend the statue unveiling ceremony of social reformers Jyotiba Phule and Savitribai Phule in Hindaun. On this occasion, he launched a scathing attack on the current Bhajanlal Sharma government in Rajasthan and expressed concern over the growing influence of gravel (bajri) mafias.

Serious Allegations Against Gravel Mafias

Speaking to the media, Gehlot said,

“People across the state, from top to bottom, are angry. Gravel is being sold at extremely high prices, which is a very dangerous situation.”

He alleged that gravel mafias are active throughout the state and that this could not happen without government protection.Raising a pointed question, he said,

“Why have gravel mafias become so powerful? Because someone is backing them. If the government’s intentions were clear, strict action would have been taken by now.”

Rising Public Discontent

The former Chief Minister said that the general public is deeply upset with the situation.

“Middle-class and lower-income people building homes are the worst affected. Construction work has come to a halt due to the exorbitant price of gravel. The government must act immediately to stop this,”

Respect for Social Reformers

At the Hindaun event, Ashok Gehlot unveiled statues ofJyotiba Phule and Savitribai Phule, paying tribute to them. He said that these two great figures are a source of inspiration in the fields of social equality and education.
