"That's why I said that this rally will mark the beginning of downfall of the NDA government and this rally will also be the beginning of the victory of the Congress in the next election in Rajasthan. I have received feedback that there is enthusiasm among the people," Gehlot told reporters here on Monday.

He said a large number of people will come (to the rally) and "give a message that it is the beginning of NDA's downfall".

The chief minister once again targeted Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP leaders for "speaking lies to mislead people".

"I have been seeing that BJP leaders are speaking without any logic and fact. They are doing unrestrained propaganda," Gehlot alleged.

He further said, "A party like the BJP is ruling the country today and security of its candidates gets forfeited in election. Candidates are getting third and fourth positions in election. You can imagine why it is so. Because they have no logic, no facts, they resort to falsehood."
