NEW DELHI: The leader of India's Congress Party, Sonia Gandhi, said on Saturday that the Indian people have made "the right choice" after her party
and its allies swept to a commanding election victory.

"First of all I would like to thank the people for reposing faith in the Congress party once again," Gandhi said in a joint news conference with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

"The people of India know what is good for them and they always make the right choice," she said.

Results still coming in from the Election Commission show the Congress-led alliance has crushed its Hindu nationalist rivals, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
