The BRS top guns are in a huddle at the Pragathi Bhavan today. The leaders reached Pragathi Bhavan early in the morning and had a breakfast meeting .
They are confident that the BRS will finally form the Government in Telangana.
If the Congress wins, it would form the first non-BRS government in the state. Under the leadership of TPCC president A. Revanth Reddy, the Congress has mounted an all-out effort to oust the ruling party and is confident of triumphing with a clear majority. The Congress is banking on its Six Guarantees and its manifesto.
The BJP, which conducted an elaborate campaign with a host of top leaders, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union minister Amit Shah and state BJP president G. Kishan Reddy, is expecting a hung Assembly.
The BRS hopes to play a key role in government formation by winning a significant number of seats.In 2018, the Congress won 19 seats and the BJP one seat, which was later boosted to three by byelections.
Gajwel, Chief Minister Rao’s original constituency, and Kamareddy, from where he is also contesting, have become the cynosure of all attention.
The BJP has fielded senior leader Etala Rajender, once a confidant of Rao, in Gajwel while Congress has fielded A. Revanth Reddy in Kamareddy.
