According to the officials, the counting of the votes will be carried out at 30 centres. A day just before on Thursday evening, the exit polls painted a rosy image for the Telangana Rashtra Samithi. According to the figures posted by ‘Jan Ki Baat’ on Twitter, the TRS is set for the bumper victory. The Jan Ki Baat survey has predicted the TRS winning 74 seats. Whereas the AIMIM will continue its stronghold and win about 40 seats, the exit poll mentioned. As for the BJP, the exit polls predict crucial gains.
The BJP is most likely to win about 31 seats, the exit polls mentioned. The inroad, if produced, has been credited to the energy show by the celebration. From celebration president JP Nadda, the runup to the polls also saw a roadshow by Union Home Minister Amit Shah and fiery speeches by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. Almost all exit polls have predicted robust show by the incumbent TRS. The Congress, on the other hand, is the largest loser in the polls for the 150 seats of the GHMC. No one particular has predicted a decent show by the Congress. Despite the higher-pitched canvassing, the polls witnessed a dismal turnout of 46%. If the exit polls translate into actual mandate, it would imply that the method of TRS operating chief KT Rama Rao worked for the celebration.
