The result in Gujarat was on expected lines and the election was once again fought under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership which was the reason why people voted in large numbers, Thackeray, a former BJP ally, said in a statement here. "I congratulate the BJP and PM Modi for the victory in Gujarat which is record-breaking and historic," he said.
He also took a jibe at the BJP government at the Centre by saying that "the projects which were taken away to Gujarat from Maharashtra also helped in the victory."
