JAIPUR: Rajasthan Congress chief Sachin Pilot exuded confidence that the party will form the government in the state and Rahul Gandhi, as well as party's MLAs, will decide on who will be the chief minister.

He said the Congress was marching towards victory in Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh and the trend would continue in the future in the rest of India.

"People have blessed us. We should get a comfortable majority in Rajasthan," Pilot told reporters here.
