Opposition let the ruling Congress win the elections?

The Telangana agitations, Chandrababu’s pada-yatra and Jagan’s jail and bail issue, MIM leaders arrests issue etc have certainly comes as a blessing for Congress party, as all these issues have kept the concerned parties busy, while providing enough opportunity to Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy to shape the co-operative society elections held on Thursday in his party favor. Would there be no distractions like these issues, certainly Congress party would not have ranked so nicely in the elections. Yet, TDP and YSR Congress party were able to grab considerable societies despite all odds. It is TRS alone had a set back as it couldn’t spare enough time to concentrate on these elections due to its hyper activity on Telangana issue.

Congress has won 561 societies showing a clear domination over their rivals. While, TDP bags 361 societies, YSRCP has won 186 and TRS gets only 57 societies. Yet, there are still 81 societies which were stayed by the government due to untold reasons. But, Chandrababu Naidu alleges that Kiran Kumar Reddy has intentionally stayed the elections fearing defeat in TDP hands. If he is to be believed then TDP’s count would be 440 societies, which is very encouraging for his party. However he seems alarmed with the verdict of the 1st phase of elections and asserted a clean sweep in the 2nd phase of the elections that will be held in this month.
