GHMC Election Results 2020 LIVE Updates: TRS Bags the Gold; BJP and AIMIM Locked in Tense Fight for Silver

The results are expected to be known in the evening in view of ballot papers being used as against the EVMs.

The BJP's performance, if the present trend holds, leading to the saffron party possibly netting a significant number of seats, will be seen as a massive improvement against its 2016 show of winning just four seats, in alliance with the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) then. The K Chandrasekhar Rao-led Telangana Rashtra Samiti swept the elections four years ago, winning 99 of the 150 wards.

UPDATE | According to latest trends, the TRS was leading in about 50 seats and BJP in around 40. The SEC said Congress bagged one ward. AIMIM was leading in another 25 seats.

Telangana Minister Talasani Srinivas Yadav targeted the Centre over the farmers' issue and said, "Why did Central government leaders come here to interfere in a local body election when there are so many pressing issues like the farmers' protests going on in India, is what is not understandable." He also questioned their contribution to the development of Hyderabad.

They did not mention anything about what the Centre has done for the development of Hyderabad. The TRS will form the government in the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) elections this time by 100%: Telangana Minister Talasani Srinivas Yadav https://t.co/GZ5qKsX77m
