Prime minister Narendra Modi flashed the victory sign before entering parliament, as trends indicated that the Bharatiya Janata Party was all set to retain Gujarat and win in Himachal Pradesh.

Modi showed the V sign to reporters on Monday, soon after leads showed that the BJP had crossed the halfway mark in Gujarat and Himachal.

The prime minister had extensively campaigned to ensure victory for the BJP.

It had been a hard fought battle, with the Congress, now led by Rahul Gandhi, putting up a tough fight.
