It lost Punjab to the AAP, couldn't recapture Uttarakhand, Goa or Manipur from the BJP, and had a poor showing in the crucial state of Uttar Pradesh.

On Sunday, Congress' Working Committee held a meeting to discuss the results of the assembly elections in five states, as the opposition party feels the sting of yet another electoral failure.
