New Delhi - It was a splash of saffron and festivities at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) office here as the party managed to pull together a good show in the assembly polls results declared Tuesday.
Jubilant party workers at 11, Ashoka Road, the BJP headquarters here, celebrated by distributing sweets under fluttering party flags.
Firecrackers were burst as party workers celebrated the "defeat" of the Congress, more than their victory.
"The results in Goa and Punjab have showcased that those who were judging BJP to be a very small player now have to re-evaluate their calculations," a party worker said amid bursting of firecrackers.
BJP and its allies have won in Punjab and Goa, while it is in neck-and-neck competition with Congress in Uttarakhand. The party is also leading on two seats in Manipur, where it has not won any seat so far.
"More than the victory we are celebrating the anti-Congress mood, which the public has showcased. Though in Uttar Pradesh we have trailed, we are happy that Congress has lost," a senior party worker, pleading anonymity told IANS.
