It will be a one-sided affair in the elections and according to estimates, there will be tough contest only in seven to nine municipalities and none in corporations. Readmore!

“So, it will be more or less a clean sweep for the TRS. It is going to be an unprecedented record for the TRS, as no other party in the country has won more than 90 per cent of the civic bodies,” an analyst said.

The TRS has recorded victories in every election it took part since the formation of the Telangana State.

In the assembly elections held in December last, it won three-fourths assembly seats, more than 50 per cent seats in Lok Sabha elections and captured all the Zilla Parishads and 90 per cent of the mandal parishad elections in the state.

Even in the present municipal elections it will get an impressive and decisive victory, exit polls predicted.
