Rajasthan Elections: Congress will get clear majority in Rajasthan: CM Ashok Gehlot | India News

JAIPUR: Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot on Monday expressed confidence that the Congress will get a clear majority in the assembly elections held last week. The votes will be counted on December 3. He alleged that BJP leaders had used provocative language in their campaign and tried to play the religion card, but people rejected them.
Polling in 199 out of the 200 assembly constituencies in Rajasthan was held on Saturday and the counting of votes will take place on December 3.
“All have seen what kind of provocative langauge they used in the campaign but they could not play the religion card. People have rejected them and the Congress is going to get a clear majority in Rajasthan,” Gehlot told reporters here.
“The prime minister, (Union) home minister, chief ministers of BJP-ruled states and Union ministers used such language in Rajasthan which could have provoked anger, but the people of Rajasthan did not care about it,” he added.
The chief minister said there was an undercurrent in favour of the Congress and there was no anti-incumbency factor in the state.
