Jaipur: Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, talking to the media on Sunday, Gehlot said that they would go into the reasons behind the adverse election results in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh.

“I wish the new government all the best. My advice to them is that despite working hard, we were not successful, it does not mean that they should not work after forming the government,” he said.
