72-year-old politician, Ashok Gehlot, who is known for his magical political tricks, conceded defeat in the assembly polls in Rajasthan. Despite being urged to leave state politics and take on a national role in the Congress, Gehlot remained determined to stay in power.
Gehlot introduced various welfare schemes in an effort to secure the Congress party’s victory in the elections. However, as the results started showing BJP emerging as the majority, Gehlot accepted the defeat.
Throughout his political career, Gehlot has had a strong mass connection, having served as the Chief Minister of Rajasthan thrice before, and has represented Jodhpur in the Lok Sabha five times.
Despite his loss, Gehlot’s legacy as a prominent Congress leader and his rivalry with BJP’s Gajendra Singh Shekhawat continues. The opponents have accused each other of various wrongdoings, with Shekhawat even referencing Gehlot’s magical background as he gloated about defeating his rival in the recent elections.
