Earlier, the BRS president reviewed the preparations in the Adilabad LS constituency with senior party leaders from the district at his Nandinagar residence here on Thursday. He asked the party cadre to work in unison to ensure the party’s victory in the ensuing Lok Sabha elections.

He stated that the BRS has improved chances of winning the majority MP seats over its opponents, considering the repeated failures of the Congress and the BJP to deliver their promises. He reiterated that BRS was the only voice of people of Telangana and wanted the party leaders to create awareness among the people in this regard.

As on Thursday, the BRS has announced candidates for 11 Lok Sabha constituencies and is expected to release the names of four to six more candidates over the next couple of days, based on its alliance with BSP and friendly party AIMIM. All the names have been announced unanimously after considering social equations and their acceptance among the party cadre, party leaders said.
