BJP candidate from Raebareli, Dinesh Pratap Singh, has conceded defeat midway through the counting of votes.

In a post on social media, Singh who is challenging Rahul Gandhi in Raebareli, wrote “I worked very hard but there were some lapses for which I apologise to the people of Raebareli. I thank my workers and apologise to the people of Raebareli. We worked hard but the result is not in our hands. The people are like God and their decision is appropriate. I want to assure the people that I will always be there to serve them.”

Singh posted this message when the vote difference between him and Rahul Gandhi crossed one lakh.
