If the claims being made by the leaders of ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi in Telangana, the party is the largest in the entire country in terms of its membership strength.
According to sources, the TRS has set a record of sorts with over 60 lakh members getting registered within 30 days, the highest for any regional party in the country.
The membership details are being consolidated and will be handed over to the party leadership before July 30.
The data pertaining to more than 40 lakh members has already reached the party headquarters while the digitalisation of the data of more than 20 lakh members completed.
The party general secretary and Government Whip Palla Rajeshwar Reddy said exact numbers could be ascertained only after the consolidated data was digitalised.
The TRS collected a whopping Rs 15 crore through membership fee alone, indicating the growing popularity of the party among people of the State.
Going by the statistics, the TRS membership is nearly one-fifth of the total number of voters in Telangana – 2.95 crore as per the latest enrolment with the Election Commission.
Assuming that all the 60 lakh members manage to get four votes each for the TRS, it would get 2.40 crore votes.
If the percentage of voting in the elections is 75 per cent, it would mean all the votes that will be polled in the next elections will go to the TRS and the BJP, Congress and other parties will not get even a single vote!
In more than 20 Assembly constituencies, the TRS surpassed 50,000 mark, while another 10 segments received more than 60,000 registrations. Gajwel and Palakurthy constituencies have seen more than 70,000 enrolments.
“People showcased their love for Chief Minister and TRS president K Chandrashekhar Rao during a series of elections since December last. They showered their love and affection towards him yet again by enrolling themselves as TRS activists,” TRS working president K T Rama Rao said.
