The Congress which was under high pressure for poor show in national security matters pulled of dramatic victories in Delhi,Rajastan and Mizoram.The BJP which failed to gain a swing from the recent incidents had managedd to retain Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh handsomely.The loss of BJP in Rajastan put a brake to the party's inexorable dream to regain the National Capital.In Mizoram, the ruling Mizo National Front(MNF) was dislodged from power in a very dismal manner by the Congress who almost made a clean sweep.The BSP led by Mayawati and the CPI(M) won a few seats and showed that their is a swing for an alternate to the UPA and the NDA among the masses.
