BJP dominates graduate constituency

It is noteworthy that in the Legislative Council (MLC) elections in Telangana, BJP-supported candidates have already won two out of three seats in the Graduates constituency. The ruling Congress in the state remained empty-handed. Voting was held on February 27 for three seats of the State Legislative Council. In this, BJP-supported Chaudhary Anji Reddy defeated Congress's Narendra Reddy by more than five thousand votes in the Medak-Nizamabad-Adilabad-Karimnagar Graduates constituency. The result of this seat was declared early Thursday morning.
