As the BJP is set to win the Assembly elections in Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh, newly-elected Congress president Rahul Gandhi took to Twitter to congratulate the BJP on their victory. While the Congress lost Himachal Pradesh to BJP, it emerged big in Gujarat by winning a grand tally of assembly seats.
The Congress party accepts the verdict of the people and congratulates the new governments in both states. I thank the people of Gujarat and Himachal with all my heart for the love they showed me.

My Congress brothers and sisters, you have made me very proud. You are different than those you fought because you fought anger with dignity. You have demonstrated to everyone that the Congress’s greatest strength is its decency and courage.
