As the trends show BJP getting solid lead in Gujarat Assembly Elections results, Prime Minister Narendra Modi was seen jubilantly flashing victory sign outside Parliament.

The stakes are high as the BJP looks for straight fifth victory in the Prime Minister's home state.

Though the initial trends showed a tough fight between the Congress and the BJP, the post-11 am leads show BJP topping the game.

Top BJP leaders have already started reacting to the trends with many showing confidence in forming government both in Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh.

"We will form government in both Himachal and Gujarat with clear majority," Union Hom  Minister Rajnath Singh said as election leads started trickling in.

"The result is as per our expectations. BJP is leading in both the states. BJP will form a government with clear majority in Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh," the Home Minister added.

The elections for 182-seat Assembly were held on December 9 and 14, after an acrimonious campaign, which was dominated by a face-off between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Congress president Rahul Gandhi.

In the 2012 elections, the BJP had won 115 seats while the Congress emerged victorious on 61 seats.

The BJP has been in power in the state since 1995, winning consecutive elections in the home state of Modi and BJP chief Amit Shah.
