Narendra Modi has led the BJP to a spectacular victory in the Gujarat assembly polls. After sweeping Gujarat in a landslide, Modi is walking the walk of a victor. And, within hours of the win, talking the talk as well. On Sunday, everyone and everything was fair target for Modi. He first swipe was at the Election Commission, that also had a glancing blow for Congress President Sonia Gandhi.Narendra Modi, Chief Minister, Gujarat said, “We expect the EC's decision to be non-controversial. They gave two different notices to Sonia Gandhi and to me. They also took two different decisions. This is all an effect of the colonial rule"
With Modi's sweeping victory setting alarm bells ringing, the secular parties may have to bury their differences, even if those differences are over the Indo-US nuclear deal. Earlier, the UPA and the Left had agreed to a ceasefire till the Gujarat elections were over. But none had expected Modi to trounce the Congress. The result may reduce the Left-UPA tension and the BJP is already sensing that.
