For the sake of repeating, I dont think the Gujarat outcome is a foregone conclusion at all. Secondly, the previous Gujarat election was not a normal election, as it was held after the massacre. The %u201Cexperiment%u2019 was not new - it was tried and tested in 1984 by the Congress under Rajiv Gandhi when Sikhs were massacred. That Rajiv Gandhi had a landslide victory after the massacre of Sikhs was no surprise. Neither was Modi%u2019s.Five years later in 1989, Congress under Rajiv suffered badly and lost elections. Let us see what happens to BJP in Gujarat five years after the unusual election of 2002.

English media typically gets it wrong because they bring their own wishes into their forecasts!
