In this election, people did not vote against BJP they voted for Congress. The reasons are clean image of MMS & Sonia, rural employment scheme, loan waiver of the farmers, controlling terror attacks (no attack since 26/11), putting Pakistani establishment on the mat by shroud diplomacy and launching of a host of young faces under Rahuls leadership that struck a cord with the large number of young voters. The aged leadership of BJP could do little to counter this. They fell back on old tactics of divisive politics in Kandmahal and that backfired very badly. Your take?
