The BRS win in Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy’s home district comes as a major shocker for the ruling Congress ahead of the Lok Sabha poll counting on Tuesday. The byelection was necessitated by the resignation of the incumbent BRS MLC Kasireddy Narayana Reddy who shifted his loyalties to the Congress and won the Kalwakurthy Assembly segment in the 2023 Assembly elections.
The counting of votes commenced at 8 am at the Mahbubnagar government boys junior college. Against 1,439 voters, around 1,437 elected representatives cast their votes in the polling held on March 28 this year. However, the counting was delayed due to the Lok Sabha polls.
