While briefly replying to the reporters in News Delhi, Congress's Rahul Gandhi congratulated the people of Karnataka, where his party looks set to form the next government with a massive victory. "The market of hate has been shut, and shops of love have opened," he told the cheering party workers at the Congress office in New Delhi.

In Karnataka polls, "the power of poor people" have won, he said. "This will be repeated in other states too. The Congress has fought for the issues of the poor," he added, promising that the party will fulfil the five promises it made in the first cabinet meeting of its government.

This is the first significant Congress victory after Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra.
