The stakes are very high for the Congress and BRS parties in the states of Telangana and Andhra. In districts like Godavari, Krishna, Guntur, and Prakasam in Andhra Pradesh, as well as in Telangana, punters are engaging in high-stakes bets, wagering crores of rupees.
The bets are diverse, ranging from speculations on whether BRS will secure power again, to the prospects of a Congress victory in Telangana, and even predictions on the number of seats BJP might get.
Apart from party victories, the bets extend to individual leaders. Questions about whether KCR will emerge triumphant in Kamareddy or face competition from Revanth Reddy are fueling the betting frenzy.
The stakes are equally high on the success of KCR in Gajwel and the performance of Revanth Reddy in Kodangal. At the same time, stakes are being placed on the majority secured by influential figures like KCR, KTR, and Harish Rao.
Stakes on Revanth to become the CM are also high. Betting on Jubilee hills, Goshamahal, Nampally, and Khairatabad are also taking place.
