JH Bypoll Results Were Disappointing But It Is Only A Minor Setback: KTR

BRS Working president K.T. Rama Rao called on the party cadre to gear up for the next elections. Victory and defeat are common in politics. The defeat in Jubilee Hills bypolls is just a minor setback, he said and urged the party functioanries not to rest till BRS president K. Chandrasekhar Rao is voted to power again. In the Jubilee Hills bypoll, Congress candidate Naveen Yadav won with 25,000-vote majority over his nearest rival and BRS candidate Maganti Sunitha.

KTR said that the Jubilee Hills bypoll infused fresh vigour into the party cadre as the people gave a clear verdict that the BRS is the only political alternative in the state. He urged the party cadre to continue their fight to resolve people's problems. He lauded BRS party candidate Maganti Sunitha for her efforts during the campaigning. She does not have any experience in politics, yet she remained committed and put in all her efforts, he said. He thanked the party cadre and the voters who voted for the party.

During 2014-23, over seven bypolls were held but Congress did not win in at least one of them. "We informed the EC about the fake votes with sufficient evidence, the EC and police should reply to our complaints," he said.
