Prime Minister Narendra Modi has won the Lok Sabha elections by raising "emotional issues" and now, he has to meet the people's expectations, Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot said Thursday.
The Congress accepts the people's mandate and will continue to work to build a strong democracy, he said.
"We accept the people's mandate with humility. The Congress has always worked to build a strong democracy. I thank the people of the state and Congress workers for peaceful participation in polling," Gehlot said.
The BJP is all set for a clean sweep in Rajasthan again, barely five months after it lost to the Congress in the assembly polls.
Speaking to reporters at his residence, the chief minister said, The mandate doesn't seem to be based on ideologies."
