The two CMs pressed their party men and cadre for the electioneering that went on for two weeks till the final day of campaigning, KCR and his arch rival Chandrababu Naidu stayed away from voting as they have no chance in the GHMC area.

Similarly, Chandrababu’s wife Bhuvaneshwari, son Nara Lokesh and his wife Brahmani cast votes at the booths allotted. (NSS)
