The exam was conducted by the Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education. "The SOG is doing a good job and everyone agrees on this. The BJP is in the election mode and therefore, (such) decisions are being taken. I believe that if anyone can unravel the truth, there is no problem," Gehlot said.
The veteran Congress leader also said an "atmosphere of riots" is being created in the country. He said whenever there is a riot and an atmosphere of tension, people are arrested and some are released after investigation but it is not fair to run bulldozers on houses just because someone has been arrested.

"I have never seen such an injustice. We are seeing this for the first time in the country. That is why I say again and again that nobody knows in which direction the country is going," Gehlot said. He said Congress president Sonia Gandhi has demanded that Prime Minister Narendra Modi should come forward, condemn incidents of violence and call upon the people of the country to maintain peace and harmony.
