The biggest gainer K Chadrashekar Rao's Telangana Radhtriya Samiti which has increased it's share from 10 per cent in 2009 to an estimated 36 per cent now.
Jagan Mohan Reddy's YSR congress which is against the formation of Telangana, gets 7 per cent vote share. But the real impact of Jagan Mohan Reddy, son of the late YSR Reddy who split from the congress, is in the rest of Andhra Pradesh.
In Rayalseema and Coasta Andhra Jagan Reddy's YSR congress has emerged as the biggest force with a 36 per cent vote share. The Congress has lost 7 per cent and the TDP 9 per cent of its vote share compared to 2009.
