Campaigning ends for Jubilee Hills by-election; results on Nov 14

Hyderabad, Nov 9 (UNI) The high-decibel campaign for the Jubilee Hills Assembly by-election came to an end at 1800 hours on Sunday. With polling scheduled for November 11, all major parties have made a final push to secure victory in what has become one of the most closely watched electoral battles in Telangana state.
The ruling Congress has approached the by-election with high stakes, viewing it as a continuation of momentum after its win in the Cantonment bypoll. Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, along with cabinet ministers and senior party leaders, actively campaigned across the constituency. Ministers were assigned responsibilities division-wise to ensure coordinated outreach.
The BRS, aiming to reassert its political relevance after its recent electoral setbacks, also campaigned aggressively. Party leaders sought to highlight what they described as the difference in development between the BRS and the present Congress government, projecting a win here as a sign of public discontent.
