Telangana MLC polls to indicate voter mood ahead of 2023 battle By IANS| Posted by Sameer | Updated: 25th February 2021 7:17 am IST Hyderabad: An interesting battle is on cards in the next month’s elections to two seats of the Telangana Legislative Council from graduates’ constituencies as the ruling TRS faces an acid test. The resurgence of the BJP following its recent victories and entry of two prominent academics in the fray has made the MLC polls an uphill task for the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS). Though the number of graduates eligible to vote in Hyderabad-Rangareddy-Mahabubnagar and Warangal-Khammam-Nalgonda constituencies are around 10 lakh, the fact that they cover 75 out of 119 Assembly constituencies make the poll battle significant.
