Houston, Agency Telangana’s assembly elections may be a year away, but the state’s electoral environment has already been set by the three main political parties taking advantage of every opportunity to outdo one another and engage with the electorate.

All political parties are active during the election campaign, as evidenced by the public meeting of Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao, the padyatra of state BJP president Bandi Sanjay Kumar, the regular visits of Union ministers and BJP leaders, and the numerous campaigns run by the Congress party.
Despite its refusal to hold elections until the end of 2023, the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) has started preparing for a fight to win a third term in office in India’s youngest state.
Professor K Nageshwar, a political analyst, thinks the TRS is under pressure following the BJP’s victories in two assembly by-elections (Dubak in 2020 and Huzurabad in 2021), as well as the BJP’s strong showing in the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC). He stated, “TRS is under pressure, but it is too soon to predict who will win the next election.
According to Professor Nageshwar of the Department of Journalism, the TRS is reportedly under pressure as a result of the BJP’s victories in Dubak and Huzurabad and strong showing in the GHMC elections. The TRS believed it would face little opposition because the Congress was waning. Intriguingly, he has discovered a fresh and formidable rival in the BJP.
He claimed that, in contrast to the Congress, the BJP is in power at the federal level and has achieved strong election outcomes. He claimed that they are well equipped. Unlike the Congress, the national leadership fully supports the state leadership.
Every time there are elections, according to Nageshwar Rao, there would be a triangular conflict. Given that the Congress is still present and the BJP is developing, there will undoubtedly be a three-way race, he said.
The BJP is aggressively pursuing its Mission 2023, positioning itself as the only realistic alternative to the TRS and boosted by victories in two assembly by-elections.
Despite being credited with creating the state of Telangana, the Congress party has lost power twice and now faces a serious struggle to retake its long-held stronghold. Since 2019, the Congress has seen a number of losses, including losing all four by-elections, a dozen MLAs defecting, and internal strife.

In the 119-member Assembly, the TRS, which has 103 MLAs, is likewise making every effort to defeat Manucodes because it thinks a win here will give it a psychological advantage before the 2023 polls. A day before Amit Shah’s public conference, KCR launched the TRS campaign in the area after realizing its significance.
Political activity has been ignited by the Manucodes bypoll, with all three of the major players preparing to test the waters before the major confrontation. After serving two terms in a row, the TRS is taking careful steps to strengthen its position since it expects a significant anti-incumbency wave and vigorous opposition.
KCR, the state’s well-liked chief minister, has been giving a public speech almost every week, inaugurating the newly-established collectorates in the districts, and taking advantage of every occasion to celebrate Telangana’s accomplishments over the previous year and to rally the populace against the “danger” posed by the divisive.
He is criticizing the Prime Minister’s policies while highlighting Telangana’s achievements in addressing power shortages, including 24 hour free electricity for farmers, welfare programmes for farmers and other members of society, and a significant increase in the area under cultivation.
Additionally, KCR is attempting to regain the support of voters who have drifted away from the TRS in previous years. The announcements of job openings in various government agencies are perceived as an effort to appease the youth unemployment crisis. He announced monthly social security benefits for an additional 10 lakh people last month, bringing the total to 36 lakh.
The TRS leader informed the populace that farmers will not receive free power, investment support, insurance services, or monthly pensions for various pensioner groups. Amit Shah, J.P. Nayyar, and Prime Minister Modi Recent trips to Telangana make it quite evident that the BJP would focus on dynasty politics, purported corruption, and appeasement in its campaign for the upcoming election.

Hyderabad: The BJP has begun its preparations for the Telangana assembly elections. The Telangana Rashtra Samithi should not receive all of the credit for the agitation that resulted in the creation of the state and propelled them to power, according to the Bharatiya Janata Party.
It has been made known by the Telangana BJP unit that they intend to use it as an election issue. In this episode, the party has erected an exhibition describing each demonstration and movement that took place at the National Executive Committee meeting location and contributed to the establishment of the state. Additionally, a photograph of the Kakinada proposal is shown. The formation of Telangana was discussed at the Andhra Pradesh State Executive Meeting in July 1997.
It also features a photograph of the 24-year-old scholar Shrikant Chari, who died during a demonstration in support of Telangana. In this exhibition, it was also mentioned that 1200 students committed suicide in retaliation for the Congress government’s unyielding stance.
Chandrashekhara Rao allegedly tried to claim sole credit.
Party insiders claimed that the BJP, in addition to the TRS, had a long history and significant role in the Telangana state movement. According to a senior BJP leader, leaders from the BJP as well as the TRS made considerable contributions to the creation of Telangana state.
Telangana was created as a result of the BJP, as noted by CT Ravi, national general secretary, who also attributed the violent agitation that preceded Telangana’s establishment to the Congress.
According to CT Ravi, “Our party supported Telangana, and during the Vajpayee administration, we peacefully established Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand. However, the Congress was unable to do so in the case of Telangana.
Additionally, images of Eatala Rajendran, a current BJP leader, have been posted. It has been reported that Sushma Swaraj, a late BJP politician, spoke at the ABVP “Ranabhari” conference held in 2010 at Nizam Maidan.
The creators of that campaign quit TRS and joined BJP, according to BJP national general secretary and Telangana in-charge Tarun Chugh, because TRS wanted to take credit for Telangana state away from others. He is not the only person to grant Telangana statehood. The Telangana state movement was spearheaded by our late leader Sushma Swaraj.
Hyderabad: In preparation for Telangana’s next assembly elections, polls are now being taken to gauge public sentiment. The results of numerous surveys have sparked political unrest in the state, with the three main parties — the BJP, the Congress, and the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), which is now in power — laying claims to form the next administration. The survey indicates that there may be a struggle between the TRS and BJP in the state. The poll shows that TRS has the potential to grow into a significant party once more, but it’s vote share has decreased by 8% while the BJP’s vote share may rise by 23.5%.
According to a recent study performed by private parties, TRS received 38.88% of the vote, followed by the BJP (30.48%), Congress (23.71%), and others (6.91%). Out of 119 assembly seats up for election in 2018, TRS received 46.9% of the votes and 88 seats. BJP had to settle for just one seat, while Congress received 28.4% of the vote and won 19 seats.
There are 102 TRS legislators.
The number of TRS MLAs has increased to 102 as a result of the addition of MLAs from other parties, and the BJP has gained two MLAs by winning the by-elections. Another agency’s survey indicates that TRS will likely win 39.5 percent of the vote (56–59 seats) in the next elections.
Congress may receive 31% of the vote (37–39 seats), while the BJP may receive 21%. (17 seats). KT Rama Rao, the working president of the TRS, asserted that if his party wins more than 90 seats in the 2023 assembly elections, it will once more constitute the government.
TRS is in charge as of 2014.
Of. Since 2014, Chandrashekhar Rao’s Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) has been in charge. According to recent surveys by the Congress and the BJP, Chandrashekhar Rao will win the 2023 elections and become the chief minister for a third time, according to Rama Rao, a minister in the Telangana administration. “TRS will win more than 90 seats, according to our internal survey. This demonstrates that people still have faith in us after eight years in power.
‘TRS and BJP conducted survey in connivance‘
In response to the surveys, Congress Vice President Mallu Ravi said that TRS and BJP had collaborated to release the survey results. He asserted that the internal study indicates the Congress would win 90–99 seats. According to Telangana BJP Chief Spokesperson Krishna Sagar Rao, the BJP has never believed the polls conducted by various agencies to be trustworthy because it is an established and mature party.
According to Krishna Sagar Rao, the BJP undertakes internal surveys to better understand the changes occurring on the ground and monitors the development of political activities across various constituencies. Internal surveys, according to him, are kept confidential. Sagar Rao stated that the BJP “does not rely on unreliable external survey findings to evaluate its own or other parties’ strength in India and the state of Telangana.”
