Congress gave a tough flight to the BJP in the its stronghold state of Gujarat, and the man responsible for the revival of Congress President Rahul Gandhi's almost dead political carrer was former Rajathan CM Ashok Gehlot. Gujarat is the heart of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and vice versa, going by the immense popularity enjoyed by the former CM of the western state. To go to Gujarat and challenge the might of the PM and the Bharatiya Janata Party, which is controlling the reins of the state for the last 22 years, is not an easy task.
