Cong a dynastic party, its leaders frustrated over power loss: CM
Jaipur, Nov. 4 -- Chief minister Bhajan Lal Sharma launched a sharp attack on the Congress on Tuesday, accusing it of practising dynastic politics and alleging that its leaders were increasingly frustrated over their inability to return to power.

He said the protest against the exercise was aimed at restoring constitutional rights. Chaturvedi also accused state government of failing to ensure public welfare, alleging that poor law and order, inadequate health care facilities and problems related to electricity and water supply were causing difficulties for people....
