Hyderabad : A robust poll management machinery, deployment of 80% of MLAs n ministers, alliance with communists, strong narrative against BJP candidate alleging Rs 18,000 crore contracts, a much-publicised sting operation,poll campaign backed by I-PAC helped TRS to Win this Crucial bypolls Ahead of 2023 Assembly Election.
TRS Party candidate Kusukuntla Prabhakar Reddy’s win may be attributed to the following:-CM KCR’s Big leader image in Telangana and -TRS welfare schemes ( Rythu Bandhu, Dalit Bandhu,pensions, Kalyan Lakshm)In Many mandals (Chandur, Nampalle, Munugode) Many voters are content with the water provided through Mission Bhagiratha. Especially the fluroide affected zones.
TRS’s election engineering – an Army of Ministers, MLAs, MPs and TRS functionaries began ground work much in advance. The TRS social media team amplified & played a significant role.
TRS’s pitch that BJP candidate Komatireddy RajGopal Reddy shift to BJP for Rs 18,000 Cr contract and Timely election stint Operation of Luring TRS MLAs by BJP AgentsCongress fielding Sravanthi( whom voters see as Andhra Kodallu) and it’s lukewarm election campaign as All Senior Leaders were busy in Rahul Gandhi Bharat Jodo Yatra which is Currenrly Passing Telangana-Timely Election Pack with CPI and CPM, that constitutes Nearly 15 thousand Voter whicg helped TRS to secure higher votes.
Although Rajgopal Reddy put up a good fightBut he lost the Tag of elected representative. Votes he secured were because of his own reputation, charisma not from BJP Party . Few voters are of the opinion that young congress supporters backed Rajgopal. But it did not translate into votes.
