TRS' Medchal seat candidate, Malla Reddy continued the winning trend for the party and got 3,00,959 votes. He marked his victory with a margin of 87,990 (29.2 per cent) votes.

5. Mohd. Moazam Khan - AIMIM

The only non-TRS candidate in the top five list of big winners from Telangana is AIMIM's Mohd Moazam Khan. The incumbent Bahadurpura MLA got a total of 1,29,394 votes, and won by a margin of 82,518 ( 63.8 per cent) votes.

In the run-up to the Assembly polls, BRS is exuding confidence and CM KCR is leaving no stones unturned to claim the CM office for the third consecutive time.

Meanwhile, BJP and Congress are not holding themselves back either. The two national parties are buckled up to make a dent in BRS' winning streak. Back-to-back rallies of leaders like Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, PM Narendra Modi and Amit Shah has ramped up Telangana's high voltage polling drama.
