In a surprising incident, a Congress candidate who contested the ward member elections from Vemulawada municipality failed to secure at least a single vote during the counting of votes on Saturday. Congress candidate Nagarani Esaravelli contested the elections from 17th ward of Vemulawada municipality. But, she did not secure at least a single vote including her own and her proposers. Another candidate Gunti Bhavani secured only one vote in the elections. TPCC working president Ponnam Prabhakar expressed concern and shock over the Congress candidate not getting at least a single vote in the elections.
