Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra was seen at a temple in Shimla this morning, as votes were counted in Karnataka.
Priyanka Gandhi was "praying for the peace and prosperity of the country and Karnataka" at the Hanuman temple in Shimla's Jakhu, Congress leaders said.
The Congress surged ahead in very early leads in Karnataka, crossing the half-way mark in a little over an hour. The party appeared to have made big gains at the cost of the Janata Dal Secular (JDS), registering a jump in its vote share.
A confident Congress tweeted: "I'm invincible. I'm so confident. Yeah, I'm unstoppable today."
Congress leaders expressed confidence that the party would end up with more than 120 seats in the 224-member assembly.
Even if it clinches a victory, the party may face a huge challenge with two candidates lined up for the chief minister's post - Siddaramaiah and DK Shivakumar.
Two out of 10 exit polls have predicted a Congress victory in Karnataka while seven said the state is heading for a hung assembly.
