Telangana election results 2018: The gamble for early polls appears to have paid rich dividends as the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) on Tuesday appeared to be advancing towards a two-third majority in the 119-member Assembly.

The TRS took early leads in a majority of the constituencies for which trends were available as officials counted the hundreds of thousands of votes.

The ruling party candidates were ahead of their rivals in 82 constituencies while the other major contender for power, the Congress-led People`s Front, was leading in just 17 places.

People seem to have dismissed the alliance between the Congress and the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) as the four-party People`s Front was heading for a drubbing.

Many top leaders of Congress were trailing in their constituencies while TDP, Telangana Jana Samithi (TJS) and Communist Party of India (CPI) were not leading in any of the constituencies they contested.

The All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) was leading in three segments and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in four.

TRS President and Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao`s daughter K. Kavitha said there was no doubt that the party would retain power with a huge majority.

Kavitha, a member of the Lok Sabha, said there was no anti-incumbency as the TRS government had done well on all fronts during the last four-and-a-half years.

As many as 73.20 per cent of 2.80 crore electorate voted in the elections held in all 119 constituencies on Friday.

The TRS won 63 seats in 2014 while Congress had finished with 21.

KCR dissolved the Assembly in September, eight months before its term was to end.

Our victory was never in doubt: KCR's daughter
Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) President and Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao`s daughter K. Kavitha said on Tuesday that there was never a doubt that the party will retain power with a huge majority.

Kavitha, a member of the Lok Sabha, said there was no anti-incumbency as the TRS government had done well on all fronts during the last four-and-a-half years.

The TRS leader said the so-called tough fight between the TRS and Congress-led People`s Front was showcased only on paper. She told a news channel that Telangana had voted for development.

"KCR`s hard work has paid off," said Kavitha, adding that it was both welfare programmes and Telangana pride which worked for the party in this election.

The Nizamabad MP said Telugu Desam Party (TDP) President and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu hijacked the People`s Front to hide his failures in Andhra Pradesh.

She said after this huge victory, KCR would now focus on national politics to work for an alternative to both Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party.
