The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has taken a jab at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, asserting that he has endured 99 electoral defeats as early results from the 2026 assembly elections show the BJP leading in key states like West Bengal and Assam. The BJP's post on X emphasized that if elections were a sport, Gandhi would hold an 'untouchable record.' As the BJP appears to be gaining momentum, early trends indicate a strong performance in West Bengal, where it is projected to secure over 180 seats, while the ruling Trinamool Congress trails behind. In Assam, the BJP is also leading comfortably, whereas Congress is lagging significantly. In Kerala, the Congress-led United Democratic Front is engaged in a tight race with the Left, showcasing one of the few areas where it remains competitive. This criticism from the BJP is part of a broader narrative it has maintained, highlighting Congress's electoral struggles over the years.
