AftermathEdit
The Congress and its ally, the CPI, won a combined 65 seats. Telangana PCC president Revanth Reddy was widely credited with the success of his party in the polls.[56] Congress state in-charge Masoor Khan stated that Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra worked in favour in the Congress in Telangana.[57] The Congress' landslide victory in neighbouring Karnataka a few months earlier was also emphasised as a major boost for the Congress in the state.[58] Congress Party poll strategist Sunil Kanugolu was also highlighted in the media for his efforts.[59]
Following the declaration of the results, Andhra PCC Congress leaders in Andhra Ratna Bhavan broke into celebrations. Andhra PCC president Gidugu Rudra Raju said that traditional Congress voters will come back to the party in AP and that the party's success in Telangana would invigorate the cadre in the state ahead of the 2024 elections.[60]
