As trends indicated BJP's triumph, Sushma Swaraj today said it is purely a BJP victory as it got a majority of its own but ducked questions on her ministerial berth, saying it is the prerogative of the Prime Minister to form his own Cabinet.
"This is a pure BJP victory. Although we have the numbers to form the government of our own without any pressures but we will form a government together with our allies," Swaraj said.
To questions on her joining the Modi government, she termed them as "hypothetical" saying such queries were "premature".
