JAIPUR: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot has "accepted defeat" in the upcoming assembly elections by asking him not to halt the welfare schemes introduced by the state government.

Modi assured that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will not discontinue but only improve the public schemes if the party is voted to power in the state, even as Gehlot said that the people are aware that the initiatives are "safe" under the Congress government.
