It is a temporary and face-saving win, but it shows a moral defeat for BJP.
Gujarat voted against atrocities, anxiety and injustice caused to the common people. Gujarat belled the cat for 2019
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.

The victories in Gujarat and Himachal are significant as it shows that voters have put their faith in the BJP, despite the short-term pains that they went through because of reforms. This win is also pointing to a victory in 2019 for the ruling party. This is very positive for the country, economy and investors.Porinju Veliyath, MD, Equity Intelligence India
