Uttar Pradesh Congress chief Raj Babbar on Wednesday said the electoral reverses suffered by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Assembly polls signalled that the ruling party's end had begun.
"This is the beginning of the end for the BJP as the people have kicked them out for giving false hopes," the actor-turned-politician added.
He said that all sections of the society were feeling cheated by the BJP. The Congress victories also showed the people's faith in the leadership of Congress President Rahul Gandhi.
Raj Babbar, who had campaigned extensively in Rajasthan, said "like-minded parties" should come together in Uttar Pradesh but added that a final decision regarding this would be taken by the Congress leadership.
