The results of the bypolls to the seven Assembly segments in the state on Wednesday proved that pro-Telangana sentiments were still high among the electorate. The Telangana Rashtra Samiti comfortably won in five of the six segments in Telangana while the BJP — also pro-Telangana — was a surprise winner in the sixth.

At Kovur, YSR Congress candidate and former Telugu Desam MLA N. Prasanna Kumar Reddy won by a huge margin of 23,000 votes much to the relief of party boss, beleaguered Kadapa MP Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy. The results were, however, disappointing for the ruling Congress and the Telugu Desam. Both had been BJP strongholds for 15 years. Meanwhile, the TRS won comfortably in Adilabad, Kamareddy, Station Ghanpur and Kollapur while the BJP registered a surprise win in a neck-to-neck race with the TRS in Mahbubnagar.
