Hyderabad: Telangana witnessed a Congress storm as the grand old party won the state by getting 64 seats. This is not good news for KCR, who lost both his constituencies, Kamareddy and Gajwel constituency. Congress Telangana chief Revanth Reddy won from the Kodangal seat and the party workers celebrated outside his house. While the results are a boost for the Congress, it comes as a massive loss for the BRS, which was in power in Telangana since the formation of the state, winning two terms.
