The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) is facing a challenging political time. Once the dominant political party in the state, BRS now faces stiff competition from the resurgent Congress and BJP. The party has witnessed a significant drop in vote share by 14% since the last assembly elections. It is now keen to reinvigorate its image by highlighting its developmental achievements during the previous ten years.
Despite the challenges and the publicised legal issues of KCR's daughter, Kavitha, the BRS is working hard to maintain its political ground, especially the nine seats it secured in the 2019 elections. However, the departure of prominent members to competing parties has intensified the political battle, testing the party's resilience and adaptability in a shifting political landscape.

K Taraka Rama Rao (KTR), the Working President of BRS, remains defiant amidst these pressures. He aims to highlight what he perceives as the Congress's unfulfilled electoral promises within their first 100 days in power. Furthermore, KTR accuses Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government of engaging in vindictive politics, referencing the incarceration of his sister, K Kavitha, over the Delhi Liquor scam as a political manoeuvre rather than a lawful pursuit. The BRS is positioning itself not only in defence of its legacy but also in an offensive against its political adversaries.
