With the Congress wining the Chhattisgarh Assembly elections, state Congress President Bhupesh Baghel at a press conference on Tuesday said the mandate reflects the victory of democracy. "This is a victory of democracy.

The BJP had a lot of money and a team of corrupt officials. They also had conspirators in their pocket. Despite all of this, the mandate given by the people in Chhattisgarh is historic," Baghel added.
