After becoming Telangana's first Chief Minister, he chose to keep the Gajwel seat and vacated Medak, which led to a by-election. The by-poll was won by TRS candidate Kotha Kotha Prabhakar Reddy with a massive margin of over 3.6 lakh votes.[13]
- ↑ The 2015 Warangal Lok Sabha by-election was held because the sitting MP, Kadiyam Srihari, resigned after being appointed as Telangana's Deputy Chief Minister. This created a vacancy that required a by-poll. The election was won by Pasunuri Dayakar of the TRS.[14]
