Jawaharlal Nehru University professor Ajay Gudavarthy told Al Jazeera that the BJP’s comfortable win in Gujarat shows a deeper consolidation of the Hindu vote. BJP’s unprecedented victory margin in Gujarat despite running the state for nearly three decades signals the consolidation of Modi’s popularity in his home state.
