It's shooter vs magician in Rajasthan these days. Not many people know that estranged deputy CM of Rajasthan Sachin Pilot is an ace shooter and has tournament-level expertise in it. As for Ashok Gehlot, he used to be a magician in his youth.
Interesting isn't it? Yes. Performing magic is Ashok Gehlot's family profession. His father was a professional magician and he used to perform at functions. Sources say that after becoming a small-time Congress leader, Ashok Gehlot gained entry into the residence of Pandit Nehru and performed magic for Rajiv and Sanjay Gandhi. It is also said that both the young scions were very fond of Gehlot. That's how he gained proximity and won the confidence of the Gandhi-Nehru family.
On the other hand, Pilot, son of former Congress stalwart Rajesh Pilot, has been a shooter. Interestingly, in this game of thorns that is currently on in Rajasthan, the magician is able to weave a magic on the party, while the shooter seems to be missing the target.
