Jaipur, Dec 12 (IBNS) : The Congress legislature party (CLP) in Rajasthan on Wednesday passed a resolution authorising party president Rahul Gandhi to decide the name of the chief minister, reports said. 
 
AICC General Secretary Avinash Pande and party's observer K C Venugopal sought the individual opinion of party MLAs in the meeting, which is still underway at the state Congress office in Jaipur.

State Congress chief Sachin Pilot and former Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, both front-runners for the post, are present in the meeting.

The results of  the state Assembly elections were declared on Tuesday. Election in Alwar's Ramgarh constituency was postponed due to the death of Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) candidate.

 
Out of 199 seats, the Congress won 99, one short of the simple majority. The BJP, coming down from its earlier tally of 163, won 73 seats.
 
However, the Congress is set to form the government as it would get support from other smaller parties. 
 
Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati has said her party will support the Congress to keep the BJP out of power.
