better vote of no confidence against CM instead of Governor Raj in my opinion, but at least they all should be behind the bars and recover the looted money as earliest as possible

I dont think its a good move.
First off, Mandviwala was actually against the no confidence move against Sanjrani.
Secondly, govt should have waited for the outcome of the move against Sanjrani to see if there were enough votes to save him. Then they could have gone ahead and removed Mandviwala with the confidence, that they had the votes to save Sanjrani, and hence, they would have the votes to remove Mandviwala.

This may backfire, as the govt technically doesnt have the vote count required.
