As per the latest trends, the BJP is leading in 2 seats. If the trend continues until the final result is declared, then the BJP would end up with 2 seats. In 2014, the BJP had won 5 seats in Telangana.

The other worry for the BJP is the thumping win of the TRS. The BJP was called as an unofficial ally of the TRS. The BJP had also said before the results that it would extend support to the TRS, provided it ditched the AIMM.
