I do not see any advantage of snap poll for Congress. What is it going to gain? It will lose number of seats it got from AP, Karnataka and Maharastra. Punjab is a complete gone case. Possible losses in Assam too.
It has no way of gaining any advantage in Bihar and UP.
Assuming that it gains massively in Gujarat, moderately in MP and Orissa, what is it going to do.
The most probable( this is also a very long shot) thing that can happen is something like a pre-NDA situation. There can be a National Front kind of government with congress supporting from outside.
For this to happen George Fernandez should move to NF. Assuming that DMK and TDP doing good in their respective states, NCP also doing good in Maha then there is a remote chance of NF with left and congress forming a government at center.
The news of snap polls may be some kind of psyops by congress to check left parties.
