The Tamil Nadu election did not throw a surprising result, as the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam was largely expected to win against the beleaguered and divided All India Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam .

HYDERABAD: The TRS juggernaut steamrolled its way to yet another electoral win on Monday by bagging both the municipal corporations of Warangal and Khammam and the five municipalities of Siddipet, Nakrekal, Jadcherla, Atchampet and Kothur. It also won three of the four wards which went for by-polls, making it a complete sweep.
The ruling party not only retained power in the seven urban local bodies but also won enough seats to easily win the posts of mayor and deputy mayor in the two municipal corporations and chairperson and deputy chairperson in the five municipalities. The date for indirect election to these posts would be announced soon. It is most likely to be conducted on the day of the swearing-in of the newly elected members.
