Terming the Congress workers as 'goons', state BJP President Satish Poonia tweeted tagging Gehlot, "Congress goons pelted stones at BJP state headquarters in the presence of police. What kind of bandh is this? What kind of protest is this? What is the reason for this and what is the fuss about?"
He also asked the CM where is his democracy and good governance model? "This much pride is not good," he said.
