Telangana Assembly elections: Jan Ki Baat Exit Poll projects KCR'S TRS to have edge over Cong-TDP front

The Republic TV-Jan Ki Baat exit poll for the state of Telangana has projected the TRS to have a slight edge over the Congress-TDP alliance, which, if one factors in the seats of KCR's ally Asaduddin Owaisi's AIMIM, indicates a return to power in the 5-year old state.

Here are the exit poll results:

Telangana had witnessed a multi-dimensional battle between the TRS-AIMIM combine, the Congress-TDP front and the BJP, following elections being held early after Telangana CM KCR dissolved the assembly, necessitating polls.
