Abhishek Manu Singhvi submitted three sets of nomination papers. V Narender Reddy filed four sets of nominations. Meanwhile, an independent candidate named Sai also filed a nomination with one set of papers.
However, Sai’s nomination did not pass scrutiny. Officials rejected the nomination because it lacked the required support of MLAs as per the rules.
Meanwhile, the BRS and BJP parties did not file nominations for the election. Both parties lack enough numbers to contest the seats. Therefore, they stayed away from the nomination process.

As a result, the election of Abhishek Manu Singhvi and V Narender Reddy has become almost certain. The withdrawal deadline for nominations continues until 3 pm today.
Later, the State Chief Election Commissioner will make an official announcement in the Assembly at 4 pm. The announcement will confirm the final result of the Rajya Sabha election from Telangana.
