Pilot never had any such intention, nor does he has it now. Both Gehlot and Pilot are assets for the party and they will work together."
On the reconciliation meeting between Gehlot and Pilot, Randhawa said: "We sat together and discussed the issues separately for four hours in Delhi. Everyone spoke, including Rahul Gandhi and K.C. Venugopal. We talked to both the leaders. Both have been conveyed that they are assets for the party."
