Andhra Local Polls: Deepak Reddy Gunapati vs Karthik Yellapragada

Published 02 Nov 2026, 22:14 IST

What's behind this

Counting of votes is under way in Andhra Pradesh’s civic polls across 92 urban local bodies, with the process delayed at several places according to SEC monitoring reports. The ten zones are being counted at different locations on the Andhra University campus, while candidates and party leaders meet supporters, review prospects and some visit temples to offer prayers; authorities have made elaborate arrangements at the venue. The ruling NDA coalition says its development and welfare programmes will aid its candidates, and the High Court has given a green signal in Jagan’s Pulivendula.
