With the BRS having an ex-officio member vote in the form of Zaheerabad MLA K. Manik Rao, the formation of the municipal body is expected to be keenly contested.

Meanwhile, major parties were preparing to shift their winning candidates to camps in neighbouring Karnataka and Maharashtra. The support of the independent, BJP and MIM councillors will play a crucial role in the formation of the municipal body.
