Background
GHMC Elections: The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation, the fifth-largest metropolitan city area in the country, went to polls on Tuesday, after witnessing massive rallies and campaigns in the state. The counting of votes in the keenly-fought Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) polls between the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) began in Hyderabad at 8 am today.
The early trends show that BJP has crossed the halfway mark and is leading on 85 seats. TRS stands at the second position leading on 34 seats while Owaisi is at the third spot with just 17 seats for now.
There are a total of 150 wards in GHMC and they have been divided into 30 circles. For counting of votes, each ward has 14 counting tables, and each table and has one counting supervisor and two counting assistants.
To ensure transparency in the counting of votes, the process is being recorded using CCTV cameras.
Officials have said 14,000 votes will be counted in one round and postal ballots will be counted first.
Significance of GHMC polls
The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) is one of the largest municipal corporations in the country. It spreads across four districts of Telangana -- Hyderabad, Rangareddy, Medchal-Malkajgiri, and Sangareddy.
The elections witnessed a polarising campaign by most parties that seemed to focus more on Pakistan, Mohammad Ali Jinnah, and whether Hyderabad wants its name changed to Bhagyanagar than sanitation, roads, and water supply.

The high-stake local election achieved high significance as the Bharatiya Janata Party deployed its heavyweight campaigners to stir the sentiments of the city, desperately hoping to gain some ground in the politics of Telangana, even if it is through just a civic election.
Buoyed by its victory in the recent bypoll to Dubbak Assembly constituency, the BJP conducted a powerful campaign to win the GHMC polls. The rally phase saw BJP pitching in big names like Union Minister Amit Shah, firebrand BJP leader and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, and BJP President JP Nadda.
Union Ministers Prakash Javadekar, Smriti Irani, and MoS (Home) G Kishan Reddy, who is a Lok Sabha member from Secunderabad, party MP and BJYM national president Tejaswi Surya also participated in the campaign, with the party hoping to make inroads.
What happened in the last GHMC polls?
In the 2016 elections, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi had won 44 seats. The TRS had pocketed 99 seats while the BJP secured just 4 seats. The TDP and Congress won two seats each.
