He said there was very little coordination between local leaders and the party's central election machinery and the campaign itself based heavily on television, the Internet and mobile phones did not click with the masses.

Addressing the concluding session of the party's three-day national executive meeting in Mumbai, he said the organisation will take lessons from the defeat and plan for the future.
