@krishashok @ShainaNC @anuragkashyap72 "India is the only country..." made me recall the old joke. American: "We are a free people. I can march up to the White House and call the President an idiot". Russian: "We too are a free people. I can march up the steps of the White House & call your president an idiot."

The *real* takeaway is that after Shah's 50+ rallies, the PM's 20+ rallies, the fielding of the entire Cabinet, the 8-phase campaign, the TMC ended up with 40 or so more seats than last time. Nice try, though, with the Narendra Sangeet.
