Congress president Rahul Gandhi criticised the BJP. He said, “Frankly, I don’t see the BJP winning the next election, so in 2019 we will go back to the normal, I sense.”

He explained, “There are two basic things, once opposition unity goes above a certain level, it becomes impossible to win elections. Now the opposition unity has gone to a point. It’s simple.”

.Gandhi said when the three parties i.e. SP, BSP and Congress, come together, “BJP will win only two seats, that too with luck.”

He said even Modi may lose if he stands from Varanasi and the three parties were united against him as he asserted, “In fact, I challenge him to stand with three parties united.”
