Telangana votes tomorrow to elect first government

Hyderabad: April 30, 2014 will be a big day for 2.81 crore voters in Telangana as they exercise their franchise for electing the first government of the new state that will formally come into existence

Interestingly, the Congress has promised to make a Dalit the CM of Telangana while the TDP vowed to give the post to a backward class leader.

Indeed, this could well turn out to be a significant factor in the election as BCs and Dalits constitute over 65 per cent of the electorate in Telangana.

The TDP has, in fact, pinned its hopes mostly on the BCs and also a section of the Dalits to ward off the negative campaign that it tried to block the creation of Telangana state.

Also, by tying up with the BJP that supported the creation of the new state, the TDP hopes to nullify the negativity and simultaneously ride on the “Modi wave”.

It is also showcasing its past record to make a fresh bid for power to carry forward the development process in the new state.
