Warning the BJP  Kharge said that one day they will have to suffer the same. Kharge said, "They (BJP) want to spoil Gehlot's election and demoralise and scare Congress leader. They do it always. We won't be scared, we will fight strongly and will face this. Whatever they are doing is not right. 

"We have been in politics for 50 years, but ED and IT raids during election time, have never happened. But today they are doing this to scare the CM. But one day they too will have to suffer," Kharge told ANI.

The ED has also summoned Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot's son, Vaibhav Gehlot, for questioning in a Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) case. Polling for all 200 seats in the Rajasthan Assembly will be held on November 25 and the counting of votes will be held on December 3.
