Andhra Pradesh Assembly Election Result 2019 Highlights: YSRCP defeats ruling TDP, CM Chandrababu Naidu resigns

Live updates of the 2019 Andhra Pradesh Vidhan Sabha election result. Leads are in from all 175 seats of the state

May 30, 2019 / 11:35 IST

Welcome to the LIVE coverage of the Andhra Pradesh Assembly election result 2019. Counting of votes will happen today, May 23.

Polling for Lok Sabha election 2019 and the Legislative Assembly election was held simultaneously in the first phase on April 11.

Andhra Pradesh witnessed a tight contest between the N Chandrababu Naidu-led Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and YS Jaganmohan Reddy's YSR Congress party.

Exit polls have also predicted a close contest between the TDP and the YSRCP. The YSRCP is expected to get 13-14 seats as against TDP, which is slated to get 10-12 seats, according to the News18-IPSOS exit poll.

The BJP might be able to retain its tally of the 2014 elections, thanks to an extensive campaign by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the southern state.

The exit polls, however, paint a grim picture for the Congress. The Grand Old Party is expected to be decimated in Andhra Pradesh.

The Election Commission of India (EC) has conducted the 2019 Lok Sabha polls in seven phases. Counting of votes is happening today, on May 23.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its National Democratic Alliance (NDA) partners are hoping to retain power at the Centre. This is amid efforts by several Opposition parties, including Rahul Gandhi-led Congress, to put up a united fight. 'Others' or the 'third front' is also trying to wrest power.
