AICC Press Conference addressed by Shri Abhishek Manu Singhvi on May 13, 2014.

Shri Abhishek Manu Singhvi said as the campaign and the dust and din settles, the Congress party is happy and proud with full humility to have run a great campaign. We are proud and happy that we have kept within the boundaries of decency -- decency of discourse. We are proud and happy that we have played the game according to the rules of the game. We are confident of victory but always mindful that the ultimate winner is the voter. We have added or at least maintained the luster of our democratic spirit and we are happy and satisfied that we have not detracted from it. We have fought fiercely and firmly but always fairly. We have never consciously or sub consciously hit below the belt and we believe that we have done a vigorous strong, sober campaign most importantly keeping in mind the constitutional spirit of the country, keeping in mind its ethos, its plurality and inclusiveness. All I can add with humility is that much what I said is more than you can say for some of our competitors but ultimately when we stick to these principles, in as divisive a campaign as this one, we all enhance India, Indian democracy and the Idea of India and I think that is the ultimate and that should be the ultimate object..
