The result has silenced the critics of Modi, within and outside the party, who were unable to see a ‘˜Modi wave’. Now they are drowning in the TsuNaMo.
It is the biggest victory any political party has seen after 1984. With over 285 seats in its bag till the latest leads, the Bhartiya Janata Party has emerged the single largest party in the country in its literal sense.
The NDA is touted to win over 330 seats and UPA a meager 60.
In other words, Narendra Modi led BJP to a historic victory while Rahul Gandhi failed to provide an able leadership to the Congress and led it to the worst defeat.
While the party swept the whole northern and central belt and made its entry into the southern India, the Congress party has been decimated to a two digit figure which won’t even let it sit on the position of leader of opposition.
It will be quite interesting to see how the dynasty survives this bitter defeat. For now, Rahul and Sonia Gandhi did not even have the courage to speak to the press after ‘accepting’ their loss and taking responsibility for the same.
In a one liner that was issued by Rahul Gandhi in front of the media he said: “I contratulate the new government and as party vice-president, I take full responsibility for the defeat.”
While BJP leaders celebrated their victory and congratulated each other, Modi took the time to meet his mother, tweet his thoughts and a selfie with his mother and also went to meet BJp leaders and BJP headquarters in Gandhinagar.
India has won! à¤à¤¾à¤°à¤¤ की विजय। अचà¥à¤›à¥‡ दिन आने वाले हैं।

He is yet to speak with the media though.
