The BJP is set to form its government in Gujarat for the seventh consecutive term as it set a new record with victory on more than 150 seats. The new Gujarat government will be sworn in on Monday. The Congress had in 1985 won 149 seats - which was the earlier record.
The BJP secured majority by winning 156 seats in the 182-member assembly. The Congress and AAP were far behind and could only win 17 and 5 seats respectively. The AAP claimed it has been recognised a national party after their performance in the Gujarat elections.
The elections were held on December 1 and 5. Gujarat is Prime Minister Narendra Modi's home state.
Here are Highlights on Gujarat Election Results:
