Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot submits resignation to Governor after Congress loses Assembly election

India TV News  

Rajasthan Assembly Election 2023: Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Sunday submitted his resignation to Governor Kalraj Mishra after the defeat of Congress in Rajasthan Assembly elections. As the Congress faced defeat in Rajasthan, outgoing Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot said the poll results were "unexpected for everyone" but rejected suggestions that bringing forward "new faces" would have helped the party retain power. Later, talking to reporters, Gehlot said that they would go into the reasons behind the adverse election results in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. Replying to a question on whether a change of face in the elections might have brought a positive result, Gehlot said that it would be wrong to say that bringing new faces might have made the party win the elections.
