Four NDA Candidates Elected Unopposed to Rajya Sabha from Andhra PradeshPreviousNext

Four candidates from the NDA alliance—three from the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and one from the Jana Sena Party (JSP)—were elected unopposed to the Rajya Sabha from Andhra Pradesh. The election followed the expiry of terms of YSRCP and TDP members. Returning Officer R. Vanitha Rani confirmed their unopposed election after no other nominations were filed by the June 11 deadline. This outcome maintains the current party representation in the Upper House from the state.
