'Vote for me across 200 seats, not just locals': Rajasthan CM Gehlot's emotional appeal ahead of assembly polls
Ashok Gehlot made an emotional appeal to voters on Tuesday as assembly elections draw near in the state. He urged voters to consider his image, even if the local candidate has limited impact, stating, «Imagine that I am contesting from all these 200 seats.»
«There are 200 candidates contesting the election, I got requests from around 150 places but I can't go everywhere for campaign, so I am appealing to everyone that you imagine that I am contesting the election from all these 200 seats.
I request you to repeat this government again. You (people) don't have to see who is contesting from the local level,» Gehlot said while speaking to ANI.
Gehlot emphasized the importance of repeating the current government, and highlighted his tenure's achievements, fulfilling ten guarantees, and promised to implement seven more if voted back into power.
«The schemes and laws introduced during my tenure have made a big impact, and we are now offering seven more guarantees, which have received a huge welcome,» he said.
