Munugode: Parties edgy over counting of votes

HYDERABAD: Five hours or perhaps six at the most, That is what the months-long hard work of the candidates, political parties and their workers at the Munugode Assembly constituency, will boil down to on ‘Super Sunday’. Chief electoral officer Vikas Raj on Saturday said that all arrangements were in place for secure and smooth counting of votes and declaration of the result. Waiting nervously on Saturday were the three top contending candidates – Kusukuntla Prabhakar Reddy of the TRS, Komatireddy Rajgopal Reddy of BJP, and Palvai Sravanthi of Congress. Sravanthi said she will be visiting the counting centre on Sunday to check on the progress of the process while Rajgopal Reddy is expected to monitor the counting of votes from his camp office in Munugode town. The same is expected to be followed by Prabhakar Reddy with the TRS and the BJP candidates’ plans staying fluid as the result, despite what the exit polls have predicted.
