Tirupati: The ruling Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party has won the Tirupati parliamentary seat with a comfortable margin of over 2.7 lakh votes over its nearest rival Telugu Desam Party.
The Tirupati seat fell vacant with the death of Balli Durga Prasad Rao, who succumbed to COVID-19.
The TDP which won just 23 of the 175 seats in the Andhra Pradesh assembly and the YSRCP, which won a thumping majority in the 2019 polls, both led strong campaigns. However, the panchayat polls made it foregone conclusion that YSRCP would romp home

Synopsis
It was virtually a no-show for the BJP, which had high hopes of reclaiming the seat, though its nominee K Ratna Prabha, a retired IAS officer, managed to get 5.16 per cent of the votes. She had to forfeit her deposit. It was a consolation for the BJP that it improved its vote-share from a mere 1.22 per cent in 2019, this time though in alliance with the Jana Sena Party.
