LS Elections - Over one lakh Telangana voters opt for NOTA

SIBY JEYYA
A sizable portion of voters selected the None of the Above (NOTA) option in the most recent telangana parliamentary elections for the 17 available seats. One in every 1,02,654 votes, or 0.47% of the electorate, marked their displeasure by choosing NOTA. This represents a drop from the 1.03% of voters who selected NOTA in the 2019 election.

The distribution of NOTA votes across various constituencies is as follows:
• Malkajgiri: 13,366 votes
• Adilabad: 11,762 votes
• Warangal: 8,380 votes
• Khammam: 6,782 votes
• Mahabubabad: 6,591 votes
• Chevella: 6,423 votes
• Nalgonda: 6,086 votes
• Peddapalle: 5,711 votes
• Karimnagar: 5,438 votes
• Secunderabad: 5,166 votes
• Bhongir: 4,646 votes
• Medak: 4,617 votes
• Nagarkurnool: 4,580 votes
• Nizamabad: 4,483 votes
• Mahbubnagar: 4,330 votes
• Zahirabad: 2,976 votes
• Hyderabad: 2,906 votes
The notable presence of NOTA votes highlights a significant level of voter discontent in the state, reflecting a desire for alternatives beyond the existing candidates.

Results for all 543 lok sabha seats have been released by the election Commission; the congress has won 99 seats and the bjp 240. Even though the BJP-led nda has achieved a majority, the coalition's power has declined from its 2019 total as the opposition india alliance performed well, capitalizing on the victories of its voters and the Congress's tenacity in the pivotal election contest.
