Former Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao was admitted to a hospital in Hyderabad at around two in the morning, following a fall at his residence.
The minister may need surgery because doctors suspect he may have broken his hip after the fall. At around two in the morning on Friday, he was taken to the Yashoda Hospital in Hyderabad. Since losing the state assembly elections three days ago, the former chief minister has been hosting gatherings at his house.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi wished for KCR’s speedy recovery and said, “Distressed to know that former Telangana CM Shri KCR Garu has suffered an injury. I pray for his speedy recovery and good health.”
KCR held the position of Chief Minister of Telangana from 2014 until 2023, following his party Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS)’s defeat by the Congress in the recently held Assembly Elections.
In the Telangana election, KCR ran for two seats; he won the Gajwel seat but lost to Kamareddy. He was defeated from the Kamareddy seat by Katipally Venkata Ramana Reddy of the BJP, who also defeated KCR and Revanth Reddy.

Revanth Reddy, a member of the Congress, and eleven other ministers were sworn in as Telangana’s chief minister yesterday.
In the 119-member Telangana assembly, the Congress secured 64 seats, while the BRS managed to secure just 39. This was the first loss for BRS since Telangana was created in 2014.
During the long-running poll campaign, the party attempted to draw attention to all of its programmes for the underprivileged. Nevertheless, the execution of certain programmes had granted MLAs an excessive degree of authority to determine how to allocate funds, giving rise to accusations of both corruption and discrimination.

Despite KCR’s warnings to these MLAs to get a grip and step up their game, all of them received poll tickets. As a result, the Congress was awarded the majority of these seats.
