New Delhi: In what must have come as a shock, Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao’s ruling Bharatiya Rashtra Samithi (BRS), is leading in 40 seats in Telangana, which is way short of the majority mark of 60. The Indian National Congress (INC) is set to form its first government in Telangana, India’s youngest state carved out of Andhra Pradesh 10 years ago.

The big question is, who will be the Telangana Chief Minister from the Congress — Revanth Reddy, Bhatti Vikramarka Mallu or Danasari Anasuya Seethakka?

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president Revanth Reddy, who has been the face of the campaign said after the exit polls that the high command would decide who the CM is, though he didn’t rule out being in the race for the same. “All our MLAs deserve to be the CM, it is up to the high command,” he said.
