Looking in a hurry, Rahul addressed the press conference at the party headquarter in the evening exclusively to congratulate the prime minister n his party on their landslide victory and said that there is no point going into the pros n cons of the defeat. Today is the day of mandate n we’ve lost, I have full faith in the verdict of India’s electorates n therefore accept the defeat in all humility said Rahul Gandhi. Rahul added there is lot of time to discuss the reasons behind the defeat but today I have exclusively come to thank the media, Congress workers n leaders n those who have faith in our party’s ideology across the country. He exhorted the party workers not to be disheartened n work in future with more, zeal, enthusiasm n commitment. On the question of the victory of Smritee Irani from Amethi parliamentary constituency Rahul congratulated her n hoped that she will come true to the expectation of the people who’ve voted for her.
