The Telangana Assembly Election 2018 will take place in single phase. Counting of votes would be taken up on December 11. Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao had announced candidates for 105 of the 119 seats in the state legislative assembly shortly after recommending dissolution of the house to the governor in September, almost nine months ahead of the expiry of its term.
This time, the BJP is contesting alone in the December 7, Telangana elections.
