The High Court has given its judgment on the seven MLAs, who defected into TRS party, but still continuing as Congress and TDP MLAs. Responding to a petition filed by the TDP, the High Court has allowed the seven MLAs to use their voting right in the MLCs elections to be held on June 1st in the Telangana state. The court said that it doesn't wants to interfere in the elections process at this moment.

Therefore, MLAs Talasani Srinivas Yadav, Teegala Krishna Reddy and Challa Dharma Reddy of TDP and the four MLAs of the Congress party, who are serving the TRS now, can cast their votes to the 5th MLC candidate fielded by the TRS party.

Although, the court ruling may makes no difference for TDP and Congress parties as both parties are not depended on them, it makes a large difference for the TRS party as it badly needs their votes for its 5th candidate’s victory. So far, TRS was able to garner support from seven MLAs of MIM party and one MLA belongs to the YSR Congress party, with which the total number of MLAs supporting its 5th candidate would be 11, including its 3 MLAs.

Still it needs 7 MLAs support to pass its 5th candidate in the MLC elections as minimum 18 MLAs are needed for passing each MLC. Even if the CPI and CPM parties that have one MLA each and the one nominated Anglo Indian MLA prepared to vote for the TRS candidate, even then also it needs 4 MLAs to pass its 5th candidate. TRS is very sure to get 4 MLAs support, but no one knows from which party it will get.
