Voter tallying for the Telangana Assembly Elections, which took place on November 30, started today at 8 am. With the victory of 61 seats, Congress has passed the majority threshold and taken the state away from Bharat Rashtra Samithi. The Election Commission of India reports that the Congress has crossed the magic number of 60 in the 119-seat Assembly.
Following his party's loss in the Legislative Assembly election, Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao tendered his resignation on Sunday, which was accepted by Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan. Rao has been asked to stay in office by the governor until the new government is formed.
After BRS lost the assembly election, Rao's son and current working president, K T Rama Rao, informed reporters that his father had submitted his resignation to the governor.
