![Jolt To BJP As Rajasekhar Of Congress Wins In Lingojiguda](https://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/22175/652160/6090a4b0b8e37/Elections.jpg)
Hyderabad: In a jolt to BJP in Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation limits, Congress wrested the Lingojiguda seat from the saffron party in the by-poll held to the ward on April 30. The result was announced on Monday.
D Rajasekhar Reddy of Congress defeated M Akhil Goud of BJP with a margin of 1,272 votes in the by-poll. The sympathy factor failed to work in favour of Akhil, son of corporator-elect Akula Ramesh Goud whose death necessitated the by-election. Also, the ruling TRS did not contest the by-poll due to which the secular vote was not divided between TRS and Congress.
