The recent ticket allocations by the BRS party have stirred political tensions. Several leaders expressed disappointment for not being selected. While some have confirmed their loyalty to the party, others are consulting with their supporters. A spotlight has been cast on Tummala Nageswara Rao from Khammam district, who traveled from Hyderabad to Khammam recently. Rao was visibly emotional and even shed tears during a meeting with his supporters before his trip. Following the BRS candidate announcements, Rao's faction is especially upset since he was not chosen as the candidate for Paleru.
