Jubilee Hills Congress MLA candidate Naveen Yadav casts vote

Congress MLA candidate Naveen Yadav cast his vote in the Jubilee Hills bypoll which is underway.

Moderate polling was seen in the initial hours in the constituency, which covers posh Jubilee Hills and several middle-class and weaker section colonies and slums in the heart of the city.

A



little over four lakh voters are eligible to exercise their franchise in the bypoll, which was necessitated by the death of sitting MLA Maganti Gopinath of Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS).

A total of 58 candidates are in the fray, but the main contest is between the ruling Congress party and the opposition BRS and BJP.
