In Hyderabad, six BRS MLCs joined Congress alongside CM Revanth Reddy, impacting K. Chandrasekhar Rao’s party. Congress’s Telangana Council strength increased from 4 to 10. Pre-defections: BRS 25, Congress 4, AIMIM 2, BJP 1, PRTU 1, independent 1, with 2 vacant seats. These defections altered council dynamics and challenged Rao’s leadership post-assembly defeat.
