Hyderabad: Thatikonda Rajaiah, former Deputy Chief Minister of Telangana, openly showcased his emotional turmoil when denied an election ticket by the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) for the imminent Assembly elections.

This incident underscores the evolving party dynamics and emphasizes the intense emotional landscape as the elections draw closer. Additionally, political heat intensifies in Telangana after BRS announced its first candidate list, while Congress is set to reveal its list in the coming weeks.
