KCR was confident that the TRS, YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) and the AIMIM together would have 35-36 MPs in the Lok Sabha out of the 42 seats in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.

KCR predicted that the YSRCP was going to win in a big way. He said that the latest surveys also predicted the same .TRS MPs would also support the cause of special status for AP, which would put pressure on the centre for the grant of SCS, he said.

The reality is that Chandrababu is going to lose deposits in Andhra Pradesh, he said in a very emphatic statement. Our MP's have supported the SCS demand in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha in the past and we will continue to support, KCR he said.
