The BJP and TRS had been going neck-and-neck in the fight for the prized Munugode seat before the latter opened out a lead and eventually cruised home by a slender margin.
TRS leaders said that Election Commission should respond to the news that officials were giving leaks from the counting center to the media. It is demanded that the officials themselves give the details to the media immediately after the completion of each round of counting.
This comes in response to the complaint by TRS to the ECI alleging that the BJP candidate had illegally deposited money into the bank accounts of BJP leaders to distribute to the voters.
