Counting of votes for the Telangana Assembly elections 2023 went underway at 8 am on Saturday. The Congress party has taken a clear early lead in the southern states, while the Bharatiya Rashtra Samithi (BRS) seems to be a distant second. On the Kollapur seat, Jupally Krishna Rao of the Congress was leading. Rao, who had contested on a TRS ticket in 2018 Assembly Elections, fought the 2023 polls on a Congress ticket. Check Live updates on the Kollapur result here.
Meanwhile, according to the early numbers, Congress was leading on 70 seats, well above the half-way mark, while the BRS was leading on 37. If this trend continues, Telangana may be looking at delivering a blow to KC Rama Rao while the Congress may now be looking at another southern state win.
Cricketer-turned-politician Mohammed Azharuddin of Congress was leading on the Jubilee Hills. Telangana Chief Minister KCR was trailing on Kamareddy while he was leading on the Gajwel seat as per the early numbers.
This would be the first Congress government in the southern state, formed when the party was in power at the Centre.
