It is a double bonanza for Congress leader Ashok Gehlot.

The former Rajasthan Chief Minister, who spearheaded the party campaign in the Assembly polls, has reasons to smile as Congress is creating an upset for the ruling BJP in the desert state.

In Delhi, where Sheila Dikshit appears to be staging a third comeback, a record in party circles, Gehlot has also made a contribution being the AICC General Secretary in-charge of Delhi.

Though the Congress has not projected any leader as Chief Ministerial candidate in any of the five states, Gehlot was seen as the main rival of incumbent Raje who wanted to raise her profile like Narendra Modi of Gujarat by winning the elections.

When asked whether he would be the next Chief Minister of Rajasthan, he simply said it was for the party high command to decide.

Congress won.By: rahul | 08-Dec-2008 Reply | Forward Not a surprise. BJP was heading for complete washout before Mumbai. They gained some ground after Manmohan showed his apathy and incompetency in handling terrorism.Rajasthan was lost due to Gujjar.Delhi was won by Cong on Development front!Nothing about communalism. If Indians were communal (except for minorities), you would never see congress in power. BJP is nationalist party not communalist. Don't fall for the propaganda created by Congress, which is used by foreign powers as bargaining power. Look at the false hindu terrorism case created by congress and how pakist used in shrugging off blame for mumbai.

be fair to everyone and bjp will winBy: ss | 08-Dec-2008 Reply | Forward Mr. Rahul, i hate both the congress and the BJP. While the congress is the party of corrupt and pro-minority morons.... the BJP believes in solving the terrorism problem and all other problems not by creating a strong judiciary or by creating a proper law and order system, but by encouraging people like Modi and his goons to go on a killing spree.....a killing spree which includes women and children (as it happened in 2002).On the other hand, it was the same BJP which took the terrorists to Kandahar in the plane and freed them... What right BJP has to talk about terrorism?I want a party which believes in India for every Indian. Not anti-Hindu, not pro-Hindu but fair and just for all indians. INDIAN FIRST AND LAST . THAT IS ALL.

Good for BJPBy: Ram | 08-Dec-2008 Reply | Forward It is good for BJP that they lost some states. Now they can raise Ram Mandir issue again and fan-up communal passion as Lokssbha elections are near. Had they won the other states too, they would have been busy serving (governing) people.
