Readers' choice, not a poll: anyone can take part, so it does not show how Telangana will vote. One choice per device, changeable once a day, with a daily limit per network. We keep no personal data.

The leaders of the three largest parties

See the pulse

The three parties with the largest vote share in the Assembly 2023, with their leaders by the same rule. The figures are live from the public pulse on X.

What Telangana is saying on X

The public mood about the three biggest parties on the road to 2028, from people's posts on X about Telangana, updated every morning. The parties' own accounts are left out.

How to read this
  • "Talked about" counts how often each party comes up: out of every 100 posts that mention one of the three parties, how many are about this one.
  • "Public mood" says whether posts about the party mostly praise it, criticise it or neither, as judged by an AI model that reads each post.
  • Each account counts once a day and copied posts count once, so organised campaigns cannot drown out everyone else. This is what people on X say, not an opinion poll.

This is the conversation on X, not an opinion poll and not a forecast. People on X are not a sample of voters, and organised campaigns are active there. How the pulse is measured

What the leaders are posting

Each listed leader's most-engaged original posts on X in the past week, chosen by the same rule for every party. These are the leaders' own words: they are not counted in the public pulse. Showing a post does not mean we agree with it.

The contenders
