Lok Sabha ABP-CVoter Exit Poll Result 2024: BRS Wiped Out In Telangana As I.N.D.I.A And NDA Go Neck-And-Neck

In the electoral landscape of Telangana, the major parties vying against each other in the upcoming polls are Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), Congress, and BJP.

According to the ABP CVoter exit poll, the BRS is projected to make no gains in this election.

During the 2019 Lok Sabha election, Telangana was a stronghold of the BRS (formerly TRS), remaining largely uncontested. However, in the current election, the BRS faces significant competition from the Congress, which ousted the pink party in November 2023, and the BJP. This makes Telangana a crucial battleground for establishing political equilibrium.

Just five months ago, in December 2023, the Congress ascended to power, ending the 10-year rule of BRS led by K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR).

According to the ABP CVoter exit poll, the BRS is projected to make no gains in this election.

Telangana Lok Sabha Contest

Telangana's seventeen parliamentary constituencies comprise Hyderabad, Adilabad, Peddapalli, Karimnagar, Nizamabad, Medak, Malkajgiri, Secunderabad, Chevella, Mahbubnagar, Nalgonda, Nagarkurnool, Bhuvanagiri, Warangal, Mahbubabad, Khammam, and Zahirabad.

In the electoral landscape of Telangana, the major parties vying against each other in the upcoming polls are Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), Congress, and BJP. In the previous Lok Sabha elections held in 2019, the BJP secured victory in 4 seats, INC in 3, TRS (now BRS) in 9, and AIMIM in 1.

The current election serves as a litmus test for BRS, which faced significant setbacks during the Assembly Election held last November. The Congress also regards the election as pivotal for maintaining its momentum and establishing a foothold in the newly-formed state.

During the run-up for elections, a notable trend emerged with several BRS workers shifting allegiance to either Congress or BJP. Moreover, some candidates initially announced on behalf of BRS defected from the party and were nominated as candidates for BJP or Congress, directly challenging BRS candidates.

Given this scenario, it is imperative for BRS to secure victory in the newly-formed Telangana, once considered its stronghold. Conversely, Congress is also striving to clinch a win and solidify its presence in the southern region of India.
