It is leading in Nadaun and on its way to win a total of 40 out of 68 assembly seats in the hill state.

Minutes after, Gandhi said Congress “humbly accepts" the mandate of the people of Gujarat.

“We will restructure, work hard and continue to fight for the ideals of the country and the rights of the people of the state,” he said.

Congress's disastrous performance in the 2022 Gujarat assembly elections may get it restricted to mere 17 seats, as per latest figures published by the ECI. The BJP registered a record-extending win in Gujarat and set to break its all-time record in state for winning the highest number of seats.
