It is a matter of joy that the communal policies of Congress have boomeranged on the party and it has been defeated. (SOME OF THE Communal policies of Congress: supporting terrorists so long as they are muslims, presenting the first-ever communal budget with muslim districts getting specific funds, counting muslims in the Army, organizing a report to say that the karsevaks in Godhra killed themselves or some such stupid thing, etc.)
Apart from the 'Divide Hindus and Muslims/Christians' policy of the Congress, one more reason for its defeat is its utter disregard for the monstrous, unbelievable price rises due to its wrong policies like service tax on too many new things in just two years, and then distributing about 70000 crores of our money as bribes to people who have loans to repay..
